For instance, the bug we decided to slip Alpha for was the 'basic video driver' menu entry in the installer not working. But that's not necessarily the entire cause of the slip. If the entire release process had run on time, and we'd had really testable candidate images earlier than we did, it's entirely possible this bug would have been identified and fixed in time for the Alpha to be shipped. Just looking at the specific bugs that end up blocking the release does not give a complete picture of why the release slipped. -- 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
