We discussed this. https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/teams/fesco/fesco.2017-03-17-16.00.log.html down at about 17:21:38. I think we may have been suffering from meeting fatigue at that point, but the crucial but if the conversation was: 17:21:22 <mattdm> what about the change checkpoint? 17:21:38 <mattdm> (and if we push that back, should we also push back the self-contained changes deadline?) 17:21:42 <dgilmore> mattdm: the earlier changes are submitted the better 17:21:43 <mattdm> (sorry to reopen all of that) 17:21:53 <mattdm> ok. so, leave the deadline? 17:22:06 <dgilmore> I think so yes 17:22:11 <mattdm> I guess having the checkpoint earlier is ok too 17:22:24 <dgilmore> after a cycle or two we can evaluate if we need to make changes 17:22:37 <mattdm> definitely 17:22:37 <sgallagh> I agree with keeping the change timeline where it is 17:23:04 <mattdm> ok, so, now, previously almost-voted-on schedule with everything the same but the branch pushed back by two weeks .... so I think the F27 schedule as it is represents the current policy. I'm, as of right now, not particularly convinced of the _realism_ of this and am thinking we should put it back to being *at* the branch point. In a magical world we would at branch point decide to pull in only changes that are complete, but we don't currently have any way to do that. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
