I propose to drop the part about embedded checksum (that would be only additional check) and new criterion should be: "A correct checksum must be published for each official release image." The second possibility is to have two criteria, first in alpha and second in beta. In beta, there would be included embedded checksum. I think that first option is better. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
