Yes, but I don't see the *relevance* of that. You keep mentioning it, but I don't see what it has to do with the Change at all. The physical testing takes the same time either way. It would be nearly impossible to do the physical testing before virtual tests have run, because the virtual tests are automated, openQA runs them as soon as the compose completes. If virtual optical media boot is broken we find out approximately 10 minutes after the compose completes (5 minutes for the tests to be scheduled and the Everything network install ISO to be downloaded, 5 minutes for the test to time out). > As for having a DVD burner, that's been a standard option on workstations > since ~2005. Well...not really. It *was* a standard option in 2005. It is increasingly becoming less standard as time goes on. -- 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 To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
