Pruning the F18 Proposed Blocker List

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In an attempt to get the proposed blocker list down to a more
manageable size, I went through all of the currently proposed blockers
in attempt to classify them into sub-lists.

 - clear +1
 - clear -1
 - Need Information
 - Needs discussion in meeting
 - Needs more testing

Obviously, this is all based on my opinion and I'm not trying to tell
anyone how to vote. I'm just attempting to highlight the easier calls
so that we can focus on voting in-bug for those and have fewer bugs to
review during the blocker review meetings.

I've listed the bugs that I think are easier +/- 1 below and I'll send
out another email with the blockers that need testing. I've already
commented on the bugs I think need more information and will try to
make sure that they're ready for review.

If you have time, please go through these bugs and vote for blocker
status (not just gut feeling, though. All nasty bugs are not
necessarily release blocking bugs) so we can get some of them off the
proposed list.
