--- Fedora Announcements ---

---- Fedora 13 Alpha Slip by One Week ----

Jesse Keating announced[1] "Today at the go / no-go meeting[2] we 
decided to slip the Alpha by one week. This slip is needed to verify 
blocker bug fixes and validate new builds of software necessary to fix 
those bugs. We are confident that the fixes we have are valid, however 
we do not have enough time to prove them valid. We will spend the next 
few days doing that validation. In the mean time builds will continue to 
be pushed to updates-testing for 13, and even to 13 stable, however 
critical path packages might not be pushed unless they are fixing a 
release blocking issue. Once we've validated all the fixes we will do 
more frequent pushes to 13 stable.

At this time we are not adjusting later milestone dates, as with no 
frozen rawhide we are not taking away any developer time."

---- Call for F13 release slogan suggestions ----

Robyn Bergeron announced[1]

"Greetings Friends,

We need a slogan for the F13 release. It will be chosen one week from 
now, on 3/2. A release slogan is a short call-to-action that fits the 
artwork theme from Design[2]. (F12's slogan was "Unite.")

If you are interested in suggesting ideas for the release slogan, please 
take a look at the Release Slogan SOP, and the criteria for 
selection[3]. The slogan must be:

     * short (1-3 words)
     * a call to action
     * positive

It should reinforce that Fedora helps the user achieve something great. 
It should also reflect some of ideas and themes found in the release 
artwork, and, if possible, also touch upon the Four Foundations[4].

Please put your slogan ideas here[5]

The deadline for submissions is Tuesday 3/2 at 20:00 UTC, which is our 
next Marketing meeting[6]. We'll be discussing submissions there, and 
then the FPL, Mo Duffy, and the Marketing team lead will take that input 
and select the final slogan on 3/2, following the marketing meeting. Let 
me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns -- and let the 
wiki table know if you have any ideas!"

-- Planet Fedora --

In this section, we cover the highlights of Planet Fedora[1] - an 
aggregation of blogs from Fedora contributors worldwide. This edition 
covers highlights from the past three weeks.

--- General ---

Karsten Wade wrote[1] ways to improve the FOSS legal landscape. "At the 
close of SCALE 8x I caught a presentation by my colleague Richard 
Fontana, who was talking on Improving the Open Source Legal System. 
Richard’s proposal is to consider FLOSS licensing and legal landscape as 
its own international legal system. This is instead of how we do it now, 
which is to try mapping license terms to local law, or ignoring the 
problems that arise from that." Jon Stanley added[2] comments "on some 
old news that people may or may not be aware of, the Court of Appeals 
for the Federal Circuits 2008 ruling in Jacobsen v. Katzer. 
Interestingly, the case was recently resolved with a settlement in favor 
of Jacobsen (the OSS author)."

Máirín Duffy attended[3] the GNOME London UX Hackfest. Topics that 
Máirín covered include "Painless accessibility tips for GNOME designers 
and developers"[4], a "GNOME Vision Brainstorm"[5] and usability reports 
and possible improvements for Empathy[6] and Totem[7]. Bastien Nocera 
was there too, and shared[8] a discussion about removing preferences 
from GNOME, replacing them with a "TweakUI" type interface called "GNOME 
Plumbing".

Red Hat Enterprise Linux has been named[9] as one of the "25 Decade 
Shaping Technologies" by eWEEK.

Mel Chua summarized[10] the Fedora 13 "talking points" that have been 
chosen. And, "if you know cool things about a talking point that should 
be mentioned, good resources on it to link to, or otherwise have 
something to chip in, please add it to the wiki page; we’ll be cleaning 
up the final display next week right before the Alpha goes out."

Daniel Walsh explained[11] why there is an audit2allow but not 
audit2dontaudit tool: There should be. And now there is. "In Fedora 12 
and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, I added a new flag to audit2allow, -D or 
--dontaudit. This option tells audit2allow to generate dontaudit rules 
rather then allow rules."

Max Spevack presented[12] a talk at FOSDEM 2010 on Open Source 
Governance (video).

Tom Callaway noted[13] that after a brief absence, Chromium packages are 
back, but for Fedora 12 only (for now).

--- Fedora Splits and Goes Faster (LinuxPlanet) ---

Kara Schlitz forwarded[2] a summary of the following article posted to 
LinuxPlanet on 2/23/2010:

"Fedora Splits and Goes Faster By Sean Michael Kerner

The bleeding edge of Red Hat's Fedora Linux community has long been the 
branch of Fedora code known as Rawhide. New contributions land in 
Rawhide first, marking the tip of new Linux development for Fedora, 
though activity there slows down during Fedora release cycles.

As a result of a new move taken by Fedora developers this month, 
however, Rawhide is evolving to ensure that even when new Fedora 
releases are coming, the bleeding edge of Linux development won't grind 
to a halt."

-- QualityAssurance --

In this section, we cover the activities of the QA team[1].

Contributing Writer: Adam Williamson

    1. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA

--- Test Days ---

Last week's Test Day[1] was on the langpack plugin for yum[2]. The event 
suffered a little from falling in the same week as the Alpha candidate 
testing process, but testing did result in the identification of two 
bugs. Thanks to those who came out to test.

Next week's Test Day[3] will be on the use of SSSD by default[4]. As the 
page says, "The prime benefit of the System Security Services Daemon is 
support for offline logins. Above and beyond the traditional pam_ldap or 
pam_krb5 approaches, the SSSD would remove the need for laptop users of 
Fedora to maintain a local account, separate from their 
centrally-managed account, to work offline or disconnected from the 
central servers." This is a significant feature for many people, so 
please come out and help us test it! The Test Day will run all day on 
Thursday 2010-03-04 in the #fedora-test-day IRC channel.

If you would like to propose a main track Test Day for the Fedora 13 
cycle, please contact the QA team via email or IRC, or file a ticket in 
QA Trac[5].

-- Weekly meetings --

The QA group weekly meeting[1] was held on 2010-02-22. The full logs are 
available[2]. Adam Williamson noted that the privilege escalation 
policy[3] the group had helped to create had been approved by FESco and 
was now an official policy.

James Laska noted that the first Alpha release candidate was now 
available for testing[4]. Jesse Keating mentioned that it had turned out 
to be quite broken. James pointed out the test result matrix[5] as the 
best summary of exactly how broken. The group briefly discussed the 
causes for the regressions from the second test compose, with the X 
server input switch from HAL to dbus being one of the major causes, and 
some errors in anaconda changes the other. Kamil Paral pointed out that 
an SELinux bug was impeding desktop validation testing. After some 
discussion, the group agreed testing could go ahead with SELinux 
disabled and negative results recorded, but not positive results (as it 
was impossible to be sure if the result would also be positive with 
SELinux enabled). The group also discussed the best approach to testing 
to try and get all critical issues fixed without having to delay the 
Alpha release, and agreed to focus on closing as many open bugs as 
possible even with the known-bad RC1 images and then testing RC2 quickly 
once it was made available.

Adam Williamson briefly mentioned that he would be putting the topicof 
Fedora 13 bug procedures up for discussion at the next day's Bugzappers 
meeting.

The group discussed the question of membership of the QA group in FAS 
for a while. This has historically been unimportant as it was not used 
for anything, but in future, positive feedback in Bodhi for critical 
path packages will be required from members of QA or Release Engineering 
before the update can be pushed, so the question of group membership 
becomes important. Adam Miller volunteered to write an initial draft of 
a policy / procedure on group membership.

Adam Miller recapped his call for help with QA brainstorming for the new 
security spin[6]. James Laska pointed out that there had recently been a 
test day for sectool, and suggested those involved with that may be 
interested in helping.

The Bugzappers group weekly meeting[7] was held on 2010-02-23. The full 
log is available[8]. The group discussed Jon Stanley's suggestions[9]. 
No-one could immediately think of any extra resources the project in 
general could be providing that would help the Bugzappers' work. The 
question of sending out updates regarding the project's work became a 
discussion of the long-pending triage statistics project. Adam 
Williamson said that Brennan Ashton had been discussing incorporating 
the project into the Fedora Community system at FUDCon. Edward Kirk said 
he had blogged in the last couple of weeks about starting work on this. 
After the meeting, Brennan contacted the group to let them know he was 
working actively on the Fedora Community system and had been posting 
about his work on the infrastructure SIG mailing list. He also granted 
Matej Cepl administrator access to the triage section on fedorahosted.

Adam Williamson introduced the topic of what to do with bugs reported 
against Rawhide between the Fedora 12 release and the early branch of 
Fedora 13 under the new 'no frozen Rawhide' system. After some 
discussion, the group agreed in principle that these bugs should be 
rebased to Fedora 13, and Adam volunteered to talk to John Poelstra and 
Dave Lawrence about this.

The next QA weekly meeting will be held on 2010-03-01 at 1600 UTC in 
#fedora-meeting. The next Bugzappers weekly meeting will be held on 
2010-03-02 at 1500 UTC in #fedora-meeting.

--- Fedora 13 Alpha validation testing and delay ---

It was a busy week for Alpha validation testing for QA and release 
engineering, with four Alpha release candidate builds being built and 
(to some extent) tested. As discussed at the meeting, the first release 
candidate had significant problems rendering it almost unusable. The 
second fixed some issues but was still had major problems. The third 
fixed most of the outstanding issues but introduced a regression which 
broke x86-64 installation, and could also not be installed from the live 
image. Despite great effort on the part of the release engineering team, 
It was not possible to build a fourth release candidate in time to be 
properly tested before the project-wide release readiness meeting, so QA 
and release engineering had to vote to delay the Alpha release. As 
announced[1] by Jesse Keating, the Alpha release would be delayed by one 
week, but the Beta and Final schedules would not be changed. The fourth 
release candidate build was announced[2] by Rui He on 2010-02-26, and 
validation testing results looked positive at the time of writing. Andre 
Robatino announced[3]DeltaISOs for RC2 -> RC3, and RC3 -> RC4.

--- Dealing with old Target bugs ---

Christopher Beland asked[1] what should be done with open bugs that were 
on the Target lists for previous releases. Adam Williamson replied to 
agree that this was an unsettled question, and pointed out that 
practically speaking, neither QA nor development teams had paid much 
attention to the Target lists for several releases. He suggested the 
system should be either revised or abandoned.

--- Critical Path Wranglers proposal ---

Adam Miller presented[1] an outline[2] of a policy for membership of the 
QA group in FAS (as initially discussed during the weekly meeting). He 
asked for the group to comment on the proposal and suggest possible 
refinements and improvements.

--- Documentation Related to the Release Schedule ---

John Poelstra has requested the creation of a wiki page, outlining 
information related to the requirements and consequences in line with 
the 'Software Translation Deadline' milestone[1]. Currently, John is 
working to get in place a wiki page(link) for each milestone in the 
Fedora Schedule.

At present, the upcoming milestone for the Fedora Localization Project 
is the 'Fedora 13 Final Software Translation Period' scheduled to end on 
March 23rd 2010[2].

--- Hivex and kf Translations Submission Issues Corrected ---

Daniel Cabrera from the Spanish team notified[1] that libguestfs and 
hivex modules pointed to the same bug component for translation 
submissions on translate.fedoraproject.org. This was corrected[2] by 
Piotr Drag and the page for now points to the correct bug for hivex.

Thomas Canniot from the French team intimated[3] about availability of 
the long dormant, kf package in translate.fedoraproject.org. This has 
been moved to the 'Deprecated' section by Piotr[4].

--- Alpha Banner ---

Following a reminder[1] from John Poelstra about the upcoming scheduled 
tasks for the Design Team, Nicu Buculei proposed a first concept[2] for 
the Fedora 13 Alpha banner for the website[3] and Alexander Smirnov 
followed[4] with his own.

--- LiveCD Icon ---

Onyeibo Oku proposed[1] an icon for the Live media "I like to be 
reminded that I have a Fedora Media mounted (either in windows or in 
Fedora). I noticed that fedora media displays a generic icon when 
mounted so I decided to create something" and after Paul Frields 
pointed[2] a few mistakes " normally we would not use a 3D version of 
the Fedora logo like this in the distro itself, since it doesn't match 
the other visual styling of the desktop" he updated the design[3].

--- Testing the Alpha Backgrounds ---

Paul Frields issued[1] a call for help with testing the Fedora 13 Alpha 
backgrounds "If you've been testing the Goddard backgrounds, *please* 
log in at the Bodhi site and leave a comment to let us know if they're 
working OK for you in the F13 pre-release" and with the help of this 
call, Martin Sourada reported[2] the package promotion "Many thanks 
anyone who tested and left a comment in Bodhi. The packages have been 
tagged into dist-f13 now, so they should make it into Alpha :)"
