I meant to send an email to this effect yesterday, but somehow I didn't, though I clearly remember writing it. Very strange. Anyhow, since no-one had objections to these criteria, I went ahead and added them to the F14 Beta and Final criteria: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Final_Release_Criteria https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Beta_Release_Criteria I have adjusted two test cases to cover the update and session management criteria: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_desktop_updates https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_desktop_login and created a new test to cover the keyring criterion: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_desktop_keyring please do review these and make sure they make sense, and suggest any possible improvements. Thanks! Note the cases are intentionally written to be desktop-agnostic, the hedging and lack of references to a specific desktop (e.g. GNOME) are intentional. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
