I was one who slightly favoured Thursday. As Jaroslav said, the reasoning is that this week the extra day could be *really important*, with the timing of the fedup work. We are aiming to build RC1 today; realistically speaking the chances that fedup works perfectly first time are not high, so I was figuring on needing at least an RC2. Given that, Wednesday seemed over-optimistic to do the meeting. I think it's understood that we won't make a controversial Go call on Thursday; it'll be either a clear Go, otherwise slip. We could have a pre-meeting-meeting on wednesday to evaluate the current state at that time, I guess, to feed into the thursday meeting. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
