Obviously, there's a need for some deadline _after_ TC1 and _before_ TC2 for newly found critical bugs to be made a MUSTFIX item for TC2. Or else that list could grow and delay TC2 again and again. Where TC1 stopped testers from testing it further due to show-stoppers, the same testers could try out the semi-fixed TC2 to find out how far they come, confirm fixes, and perhaps find additional bugs (which they couldn't find without a TC2). -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
