That's right folks, we are now branched for Fedora 13. What does this mean to you? Well that depends on who "you" are, here are some "you"s that we wrote about: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/No_frozen_rawhide_announce_plan#Use_Cases The real take away here is explained at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Branch_Freeze_Policy The upshot is that if you want to get a build into Fedora 13, you gotta build from F-13/ and you gotta put it in bodhi. The good news is that if your package isn't critical path, it's just like any other update in bodhi, you decide when it goes stable. If it's critical path, releng or QA will have to give it karma, but that means somebody will look at it! (We're working on ways to make it more visible to the user that your package is critical path). There are new paths on the mirrors too: pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide <-- this is the new home of rawhide. Builds from devel/ go here. This is now the F-14 development ground. pub/fedora/linux/development/13 <-- this is the branched Fedora 13. Builds from F-13/ that make it through bodhi as stable show up here. This is what we'll use to make the Alpha, Beta, Final release and all the snapshots in between and the nightly attempt at instllable images. pub/fedora/linux/updates/testing/13 <-- this is where the testing updates go for the branched 13. Test 'em here before they go to stable. For a better picture, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/No_frozen_rawhide_announce_plan#Tree.2FRepo_Overview I have disabled the rsync part of the rawhide compose process so that I can do things by hand tomorrow and ensure we don't screw up the mirrors, so you'll see a delay in things. We'll also do the branched tree compose by hand as well and then sync the output at the same time to preserve hardlinks. It'll be a fun day! Hop by #fedora-devel if you've got questions and somebody will try to help you.
