The F16 branch occurred when Fedora's semiannual release objective said it had to occur, in order to meet a target release date, not when Rawhide satisfied some stability criterion associated with "not too many bugs." It is likely this F16 branch simply captured more problems than usual. Therefore, the present need is a short-term strategy to handle the F16 problems efficiently. In the longer term, experience may lead to better techniques to handle problems after a branch - schedule options, pre-branch tests, pipelined schedule with two branches simultaneously in development... whatever works. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
