<to be sung to the tune of Jingle Bells> Dashing through the builds In a one cup holder desk O're the build errors we go Swearing all the way! Phones on dev's desks ring Making Managers frown What fun it is to cuss and swear re-baseing on GCC! Oh, software sucks, Software sucks, Software really sucks! Oh what fun it is to slip our release for a month! Software sucks, Software sucks, Software really sucks! Oh, what fun it is to slip our release for a month! We rebuilt java* once It wasn't very nice we rebuilt everything else to our user's delight! Broken deps still there Making testing fun We really thing we need to test for another month! Oh, software sucks, Software sucks, Software really sucks! Oh what fun it is to slip our release for a month! Oh What Fun It Is To Slip Our Release For A Monnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnth!!! Ok, it won't be a full month, but due to the recent upgrade of gcc and the subsequent full rebuild of everything that does (and doesn't, whoops!) get built with gcc, including java stuff with gcj, and the need to further test package selection windows in Anaconda, system-config-packages for upgrades, and the development tree in general once we settle down the rebuilds, we have decided to delay test2. Here is a new schedule that we will be working toward: * Test2 freeze date to 9 January * Test2 release, 16 January * Test3 freeze, 6 February * Test3 release, 13 February * Final absolute freeze, 6 March * Release, 15 March We are going to try very hard to have a stable(ish) tree suitable for testing over the holidays, so that Test2 will be better for the slip and keep us in line with getting Test3 and eventually the final release out in the best shape possible. Thank you all for your hard work in helping us develop the best distribution we can! -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
