Could we (GNOME and Fedora in collaboration) set up something where they _are_ updating everything on top of Rawhide nightly? If not instead of GNOME OS, at least alongside it? That seems like it would: 1) Give a better practical test environment for GNOME folks 2) Make the needles match 3) Maybe make it so developers can fix their own needle-breaking problems? 4) Help everything get tested earlier -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
