Re: proposal: drop optical media from release criteria

Okay,

I see. I always burn the ISOs to DVD and do bare metal installs from DVD; so I am testing this criteria every time I install a new drop for testing. Well, I have no plans to change my install procedure. I don't test every drop, and so far I wait to start testing until the new version is branched. Other than that I will certainly report it if I get one that will not boot from DVD. Would it be good for me to test a a couple of Rawhide drops just after the beginning of each cycle?

I guess, given this, I don't mind if it's no longer a blocker for Beta; as long as it is still expected functionality and works in the released version.


	Have a Great Day!

Can't burn DVDs (for backups of video lectures) either.
Burning DVDs is a completely separate issue.

It is the same optical device, if I use it as my boot device or a backup
device.  It has to work.

Or is this strictly on optical install media?

Yes. We do not have 'burning optical discs from Fedora must work' in
the release criteria, and never have. What we have in the release
criteria is this:

"Release-blocking live and dedicated installer images must boot when
written to optical media of an appropriate size"

Matthew is proposing that we drop that.
