A little late [1], Fedora 23 Final Release Compose 2 (RC2) is now available for testing. Please help us complete all the validation testing! This is rumor control, here are the facts: RC2 contains fixes for all accepted blockers. However, there are several proposed blockers, at least one of which is pretty likely to be accepted as a blocker at the Go/No-Go meeting tomorrow. We don't want to pre-empt the meeting, but talking with several QA folks, Matthew, releng, and GNOME devs on IRC today we agreed to try and look ahead a bit, and what we're expecting to happen is that at least one blocker will be accepted tomorrow and we are thus likely to slip - we've agreed that we definitely don't want to try and do some insane last-minute RC3 heroics, we want to make sure things get built and tested properly and thoroughly. Bearing that in mind, please, no-one kill yourself testing this: there's no need for any all-night testing heroics! RC2 tests will be valuable, but there's no need to go all out. At present I'm expecting we'll build an RC3 tomorrow and focus on testing that really thoroughly over the next 7 days (and any further RCs that turn out to be necessary). RC1 was a failed compose attempt in releng, it never got out. Content information, including changes, can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6266#comment:14 . Please see the following pages for download links and testing instructions. Normally dl.fedoraproject.org should provide the fastest download, but download- ib01.fedoraproject.org is available as a mirror (with an approximately 1 hour lag) in case of trouble. To use it, just replace "dl" with "download-ib01" in the download URL.
