Greetings. I'd like to propose some changes to the spins process. I already posted to the spins and qa lists a while back and asked for feedback. I did get some good feedback from qa folks, but mostly crickets from spins maintainers, so I thought I would post an improved draft here and ask for any additional feedback before I ask FESCo to approve. The reason I am proposing this is that pretty much every release for the last 4 or 5 or so we have had spins that are broken or don't work. We should make an effort to make sure all the spins we do ship actually at least meet a low bar for 'working'. Orig thread/proposal at: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/spins/2013-July/003282.html current proposal starts here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/20/Spins shall be the cannonical list of approved spins by the sig. At the Alpha Milestone, releng will produce all approved spins for tc/rc testing. Each approved spin MUST have at least 1 person fill in a basic spin test matrix for at least 1 TC or RC in order to be shipped with Alpha. If the image fails or there are no test results maintainers can try again at the next milestone, but the image is NOT shipped with Alpha. At the Beta Milestone, releng will produce all approved spins minus those that were not shipped with Alpha. Spins that dropped out at Alpha can request to be readded to composes via a rel-eng ticket. Again each spin produced at Beta must have at least 1 person fill in basic tests in order to be shipped with Beta. If the image fails or there are no test results maintainers can try again at the next milestone, but the image is NOT shipped with Beta. At the Final milestone, releng will produce all approved spins minus those that were not shipped with Beta. Spins that dropped out at Beta can request to be re-added to composes via a rel-eng ticket. If the image fails or there are no test results, the spin is not shipped with Final. Additionally, spins not shipped in Final are dropped from the approved spins list and must resubmit their spin via the new spins process. The http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/20/Spins page will be enhanced with a 'Alpha/Beta/Final' field, where we can note what spins are in what state. kevin
