If by 'things' you mean 'this specific issue'...well, not really, upstream code is the precise thing it needs right now. If you mean 'things in general', sure, we can always do stuff with more resources. The test@ list would be most appropriate for discussing how we can best use extra QA resources. The Wiki entry point is https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join . Hopefully we can get something started! > Is there already upstream code in Rawhide? Last I looked, no. The place to follow would be the upstream bug report: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73325 per the last comment, the patches for HFP are awaiting review (any patches would land in Fedora only once they're reviewed upstream and make it into a new Bluez release, unless we decide to backport the unreviewed patches). https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73325#c12 -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
