The proposal doesn't appear to include making this release blocking functionality, so we'd feel no particular obligation to test it extensively. So I don't see any real QA impact at least in the short term. We could by all means throw an optional test in the matrix for people to run if they want to, writing one would be, oh, ten minutes of hard labour. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
