For the record we've kind of evolved a convention in the last two or three releases where apparently uncontroversial bugs that get 3 +1s or 3 -1s in the bug can be accepted/rejected on that basis. Strictly we should aim for that to be 1 QA, 1 releng, 1 devel rather than just total-of-3, but with this giant a pile of bugs, we need to get through them somehow. Decisions can always be revisited if someone flags them up as questionable, of course - if you disagree with a decision made this way, just say so in the bug and we can remove the decision and bring it up in a meeting instead. I'll draft some clarifications to the blocker/SOP policies to make it clear that votes can be done in-bug in this way. To me it's not so important whether votes happen in a meeting or in the bug, but it *is* important that they happen somewhere where they're formally recorded for later evaluation - so I don't think we should take votes from casual IRC conversation, because that's too hard to recover later. -- 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
