I'd like to discuss the following criterion: All release media must include a standalone memory test utility. A boot menu option to launch this utility must be present and must work correctly https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_18_Final_Release_Criteria I wonder, what is the reason to have this as a release criterion? I don't find much value in it. You can always use third-party tools for running a memory check. It's definitely good to have it on the media, but do we really want to block the release it is not included? I really don't see any justification for that. Remember, there is still the checksum criterion (that is much weaker btw, checksum doesn't have to exist) that makes sure you don't boot corrupted media (and it partly applies for corrupted memory as well). Recently we try to accept only very important bugs as blockers, always asking "would we really postpone the release if this was the last bug remaining?". When I try to apply the same approach for this criterion, my answer is a definite "no". I'd like to keep the list of criteria short and simple. If there is no real reason to have this criterion on the list, I'd like to remove it. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
