[Design-team] 677080 - 'F14' artwork is shown during F-15 installation
Greetings Design team! Today, the QA team hosted the second of four beta blocker review meetings to review status of proposed and accepted bugs. One of the accepted beta blockers is a left-over from the Alpha and involves using a more friendly generic artwork, or Fedora 15 final artwork during installation and firstboot. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=677080 I've observed recent discussions on the list regarding the upcoming final artwork preparation, it's exciting to see that coming together. Is that artwork intended to resolve bug#677080, or will more generic artwork be used to satisfy that issue? Please note, that the Beta 'test compose' is scheduled [1] for Tuesday, March 22. Ideally, the test compose will include the desired Beta artwork so we have a chance to validate before the Beta release candidate. Please advise if the artwork needed to resolve bug#677080 will not be ready in time.

Thanks for the feedback all, I've updated the wiki accordingly. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Alpha_Release_Criteria https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Final_Release_Criteria Thanks, James signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
[Design-team] Release criteria proposal: fedora release artwork
Greetings gang, From the last 2 F14 blocker bug meetings [1], it became apparent that we need release criteria to describe how best to prioritize issues related to Fedora release artwork. I took an action item to draft up 2 criteria to describe the expectations around release artwork before Final, and for the Final release. I'd like to propose the following criteria. As always, comments welcome and encouraged. = Fedora 14 Alpha = * The default Fedora artwork used must either refer to the current Fedora release under development (Fedora 14), or reference an interim release milestone (e.g. Alpha or Beta). If a release version number is used, it must match the current Fedora release under development. This includes artwork used in the installer, firstboot, graphical boot, graphical login and desktop background. = Fedora 14 Final = * The proposed final Fedora artwork is included and enabled by default for the installer, graphical boot, firstboot, graphical login and desktop background. All Fedora artwork must be consistent with the proposed final theme, and if any artwork contains a graphical version number, the version number used must match the Fedora release number. Generic release artwork (e.g. Alpha, Beta, Development) must not be used for the installer, graphical boot, firstboot, graphical login or the desktop background.

I was hoping to ask for ideas/input on drafting release criteria around the artwork for Fedora 14.

[Design-team] Release criteria discussion: artwork
Greetings design team, During F13 testing, the idea of drafting release criteria [1] around Fedora artwork surfaced. This topic came up again during F-14-Alpha as a result of bug#621027 (Graphical screen in anaconda shows F-13). The QA team could use design-team input to develop accurate release criteria around artwork availability and desktop integration. Please note, there is already Final release criteria around the desktop icons/menus. These criteria are mainly for display manager and desktop backgrounds, firstboot sidebar+banners and other release artwork. Perhaps for the Beta ... we assert that the installer must display artwork for the appropriate release under test (e.g. Fedora 14 installer cannot display Fedora 13 artwork)? Anything else to consider for the beta? Perhaps for the Final release ... we assert that the installer, firstboot, display manager (gdm, kdm), and desktop environment all use the appropriate Fedora 14 artwork. This includes banners, sidebars, backgrounds. I know there are more considerations, such as multiple background sizes. Are there additional artwork considerations for the Final release? NOTE: The above of course makes assumptions about the design-team release schedule. I'm certainly not familiar with those dates, so feedback encouraged.

I'm not familiar with validating desktop background packages. Are there specific steps that you'd like people to follow when validating backgrounds? I'll be happy to pull the instructions into a test case [1] if you would find this useful.
