The final freeze for F7 is coming Thursday. After that, we will *only* accept new packages that fix bugs that are on the FC7Blocker list. Unfortunately, there's a lot of stuff on there that, frankly, isn't really something we should slip the release for. And we might be missing some critical bugs that should be on there. So I need your help to sort it out. Here's the blocker list: http://rdr.to/YH And here's the release criteria: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/ReleaseCriteria In short - bugs that: a) keep applications or services from starting up, b) cause kernel panics or oopses, c) prevent installation, d) corrupt data, or e) break major, important features[1] should be considered blockers. Everything else should be moved to FC7Target. So if there's anything on the blocker list you find questionable, feel free to add a comment to the bug and/or ask here for guidance. Beat owners, if there's anything in your beat that's obviously not a blocker (e.g. bugs in non-default apps, things that can be worked around and can be easily fixed with an update post-F7 release) you can feel free to move it to FC7Target (which will be inherited by F8Target post-release). Remember - at this point, if we slip the release again, we miss the install-fest Max has planned at LinuxTag. We need to get this right! Thanks in advance for your help! -w [1] For F7 the new features are things like Fast User Switching and KVM; see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/7/FeatureList for details.
