I don't know how you figure that. The update for F20 was submitted on 01-29 and pushed stable on 02-17. For F19 it was submitted 01-29 and pushed stable on 03-19. Both updates could have been pushed stable as early as 02-06: as ghc is not a critpath package, the update policy requires only a 7 day wait unless karma is posted. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
