Nope, completely not, we do this most release cycles and not just gnome... it also doesn't affect any of the artifacts that don't ship gnome compents. Having been involved in this process for so long I'm kind of surprised the biggest deal of all of this is that this is a "big deal"... the fact is post beta we open up the flood gates again so this is going to be there so IMO I'd sooner it now where we can get people that do a "quick fly by beta live CD boot" before they upgrade and catch the issues now than at GA :) _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
