As we start looking that way a few people generally shuffle through the "Blocker" list to look for actual blockers and get rid of the noise. Since there is no committee that decides what is or isn't a blocker we can't just take every bug as an actual blocker. > 2) What process do we go through to close these bugs? Really, that depends on the bug. Generally we fix it, or find a suitable work around. > 3) How does Fedora decide a release is ready to GA? Release Engineering in conjunction with QA typically come to an agreement that the tree is "good enough". Sometimes we have to kick decisions up to the board on what to do about remaining issues. > 4) How are bugs from previous releases considered in the planning process? They aren't really, officially. We try to fix the big glaring ones immediately after the release to prevent them from happening again the next time. Some previous "blockers" are moved to the next blocker set to be reviewed later. Unlike with RHEL, there is no real good management of the blocker/target bugs for Fedora. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
