I'm open to the possibility for sure, the meeting usually winds up being either a straightforward rubber stamp or a dissection of why we can't ship, neither of which really really needs to happen. It's possibly a good thing to have just as a failsafe in case something really odd happens, I guess. But then, we also have the release readiness meeting, I'm not really sure we need to have a go/no-go that's separate from that now we have a clear release blocker process. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
