Ie, a official build tags your build into f19-pending, tests are run on it, if they pass it tags over to f19. > I'm not going to pretend at the moment that I know the perfect > technical solution to accomplish this at the moment. Sure. Just brainstorming here for others to also jump in with ideas. > This is local testing that has been done in concert with the feature > to add enterprise login support to Anaconda/firstboot.

Bummer. ;( There was a plan to do weekly install composes, but it was blocked by mock in rawhide being broken for a while. I am not sure what the hold up is now. > Hmm, I suppose I thought Bodhi was involved quietly. If it's not, then > you may be right and we should look into other integration points. Yeah, it's not. The rawhide and released/branched versions will have to handle this slightly differently I suspect. Or perhaps we can use whatever we come up with for rawhide for others as well and just have it be before bodhi in the process. > I suppose the biggest question that needs answering in this thread is > this: Is this a goal that the Fedora community as a whole sees as > worth investing time and effort into?

Yep. I think its a worthwhile goal. I'd like to avoid slowing down rawhide or adding too much red tape, but I think catching inadvertent breakage should be welcomed by everyone. kevin
