That was my initial thought, but sadly it's not quite viable, because we can't pull side packages into nightlies as that would effectively 'push them stable'. As long as we still need to do a build with some blocker/FE fixes pulled in from somewhere other than the f24 tag, we need something like a 'TC build'. > > > > If we keep the TC/RC separation, I like the approach above. > > > > > > > > > > > I think this still works a bit better if we add a 'Final' milestone > > > rather than using the 'RC' milestone, but yeah, this isn't bad. > > "Final" would be nice. > We can't do that without recomposing everything once it's been signed > off.

I think you got slightly the wrong end of the stick there? What we were talking about was whether to call the series of builds for the last milestone "RC n.n" or "Final n.n". There would be no renaming in either case. -- Adam WilliamsonFedora QA Community MonkeyIRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . nethttp://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
