This would need to be carefully handled, because all components are not equal in terms of blocker bugs. systemd shares the position of anaconda in being disproportionately subject to them, because *everyone* in the distro uses it, and bugs in it are much more likely to be showstoppers due to the role it performs. We probably had just as many blocker bugs in anaconda for F14 as we did for systemd, or more; it's just the nature of those particular beasts. -- 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
