This is not QA's job at all. There is no quality to be assured. The release name gets decided under a process we aren't at all involved with. I don't see any reason why that should change. > No mater how liberal a guy I might be, this expresses a concern for > how open source might be perceived by the general public. > Even if these pictures and words were done in fun, isn't the > association now caustic. On an entirely personal note - the beefy miracle joke has been around in Fedora circles for years. There is absolutely no 'dirty' intent behind it. It's just a joke about a hot dog. If you read any more into it than that, that's entirely your own responsibility, and not anyone else's. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
