Please make corrections and clarifications to the wiki page.
== Preview Release (aka PR) Status ==
* Not ready--scheduled for availability on 2008-04-11
* Problems with yum and other compose tools
* Snafu with package signing which caused rawhide to revert back to
all unsigned copies of most packages--100G worth of churn
* Spend rest of today untangling rawhide situation
* Attempt Preview Release on 2008-04-15 with no change to GA date of
2008-04-29
== Mass Branching ==
* Toshio says that the tools (pkgdb, etc..) are ready for the mass
branching.
* should probably have a CVS outage to get the branching done--usually
takes a full work day
* Discusison left unfinished
== What is the Preview Release? ==
* "just another snapshot" or equivalent to Alpha and Beta which
requires more formal testing before release?
* discussion about confusion over what preview release is
* Need clearer definition for what ''Preview Release'' and ''Release
Candidate'' mean
* DECISIONS:
1. Poelcat to take a shot at documenting purpose and criteria for
snapshots and test releases
1. Preview Release will be as installable and functional as other
test releases (Alpha and Beta)
*
