Welcoming New Fedora Program Manager Robyn Bergeron

2010-11-15 Thread John Poelstra
Jared Smith made an announcement in his blog [1] about some upcoming 
personnel changes in Fedora.  I wanted to make a specific announcement 
to the Fedora lists as well.

Through the end of 2010 and a little bit beyond, I will be working along 
side Robyn Bergeron to transition my official Fedora responsibilities to 
her.  This will include getting the Fedora 15 team schedules into shape, 
feature wrangling, bugzilla maintenance, and any number of other things. 
  Robyn and I are committed to making this transition as smooth, 
complete and timely as we can, and expect the transition to be completed 
before the Fedora 15 feature submission deadline.  Said a different way, 
if you've already been working with me on something, I'll continue to 
help you with it.  For all new topics, please contact Robyn directly and 
we will work together as necessary to get them done.

One of the luxuries of my position was keeping tabs on most of the teams 
in Fedora via their mailing lists.  I won't have as much time for this 
going forward so I'll be scaling back the number of mailing lists I 
watch and contribute to.  If I posted to a list in the past, please 
don't assume I'll automatically see your message there in the future. 
Also please don't hesitate to contact me directly if you feel the need 
to do so.

Fedora, it's been a great ride. We've made great progress in the past 
three years and I'm thankful you let me be a part of it. Here's to 
wishing only the best to Robyn in her new role serving the Fedora community!

John

p.s. I'm still looking forward to and rooting for an on time Fedora 15 
release. :)

We've been trying to do that and get it off the ground for several 
years.  It hasn't exactly flourished.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not a package maintainer, but I have been involved with 
bug triage and was around the original effort to get Fedora bugzilla 
under control.

I've always believed our core need is more maintainers if the goal is 
*fixing* and *resolving* bugs. Triage and debugging help only goes so far.

It took several posts to devel-announce, personal emails, and weekly 
meetings during the roll up to Alpha, Beta, and Final, just to get 
information and help with ~20 blocker bugs.  Addressing ~12,000 other 
open bugs will require something different.

week.  Thank you package owners for all your hard work!

The list of bugs below are currently blocking the creation of the final 
release candidate (RC).  These bugs must be addressed as soon as

Fedora 14 Final Change Deadline Reached

2010-10-18 Thread John Poelstra
As a reminder, we have reached the Final Change Deadline for Fedora 14.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Change_deadlines

"After the change deadlines for the Final release no more updates are 
made to the branched development repository (e.g. 
/pub/fedora/linux/development/14).

The only exceptions are accepted blocker and "nice to have" bugs:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_nth_bug_process

All updates after this time are considered zero day updates of the 
release, and are pushed to the updates repository which is available on 
the public availability date. For example, the repository for Fedora 14 
is /pub/fedora/linux/updates/14."

Four Days to Fix Remaining Fedora 14 Blocker Bugs

2010-10-12 Thread John Poelstra
Hello Fedora 14 Blocker Bug Owners (all copied on this message),

The list of bugs below are currently blocking the final release of 
Fedora 14. These bugs MUST be fixed by this coming Monday, 2010-10-18 
(Final Change Deadline) or Release Engineering will be unable to create 
the Final Release Candidate on time, resulting in the possibility of a 
delayed release.

We need your help *NOW*.  As a maintainer, here is how you can help ...

--If you are the OWNER of one of these bugs, PLEASE add a comment to the 
bug ...
   1) letting us know how things are going
   2) what you are planning to do next
   3) when you expect to complete the work--the sooner the better

--If your bug is in MODIFIED, please make sure ...
   1) a build and bodhi update have been submitted.
   2) the bug status is set to ON_QA (bodhi should do this for you, but 
if not set it manually)

Re: Review request: Nice-to-have bug process documentation proposal

2010-10-08 Thread John Poelstra
Adam Williamson said the following on 10/07/2010 01:24 PM Pacific Time:
>>> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Adamwill/QA:SOP_nth_process_nth_draft 
>>> is a proposed new page which covers the whole nice-to-have review process 
>>> much as the above proposed page covers the blocker review process.

Thanks for doing all this Adam.

The "Nice-to-have bug principles" guidelines feels a little mushy and 
subjective to me, though after thinking about it for a while I can't 
propose anything better--you've done a good job putting some structure 
around what they might be.

And since they can't block the release they won't be able to cause that 
many problems.  I suppose if NTH bugs were to ever become a big 
distraction from addressing blocker bugs we could re-evaluate.

On the other hand it has taken us a *long* time to get to the place 
where we are today where churn in RC has been reduced to a bare minimum. 
  I still subscribe to the theory (realizing some in Fedora don't) that 
every additional change adds a level of risk of delaying the release. 
So my hope is that by formalizing the NTH we aren't encouraging an 
increased amount of churn.

I DO think this is an important section in the guidelines that will help 
cover this concern:

"In general, nice-to-have bugs are usually bugs for which an update is 
not an optimal solution, and for which the fix is reasonably small and 
testable (this consideration becomes progressively more important as a 
release nears, so bugs may be downgraded from nice-to-have status late 
in the release process if it transpires that the fix is complex and hard 
to test)."

Would it be overkill to put more explicit testing sign-off around NTH bugs?

Can you be more specific as to which page we are actually giving 
feedback on?  There are five of them there and they almost all look the 
same.

Fedora 14 Blocker Bug Meeting 2010-10-01 @ 16:00 UTC

2010-09-29 Thread John Poelstra
When: Friday, 2010-10-01 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EDT)
Where: #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net

After a short break from getting the Beta release out the door, it is 
now time to start focusing on bugs that could block the final release.

We can ship the final release of Fedora 14 on time if we remain vigilant 
and start knocking these bugs down now. Join us on Friday to starting 
reviewing what we've got.

If you are the owner of these bugs, kindly update the comments with your 
feedback as to whether you believe it is a blocker and what your plans 
for fixing the bug are.

If the bug is fixed and in MODIFIED, please make sure a Bodhi update has 
been submitted which should automatically transition the bug to ON_QA

Do you have an issue you believe should be fixed before the Fedora 14 
Alpha ships?  Please consider the following criteria when escalating an 
issue: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Final_Release_Criteria

To promote a bug for consideration as a blocker, simply add 'F14blocker' 
to the "Blocks" field of the bug you are concerned about.

Thank you!

Fedora 14 Beta Release Date at Risk

2010-09-16 Thread John Poelstra
We have missed the Fedora 14 Beta RC compose scheduled today because of 
unresolved Fedora 14 Beta Blocker bugs.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=611991&hide_resolved=1 
(NEW or ASSIGNED)

As soon as these bugs are resolved with new packages we will request an 
RC compose from Release Engineering.

Fedora 14 Beta Change Deadline Reached 2010-09-14

2010-09-15 Thread John Poelstra
As a reminder, we have reached the Beta Change Deadline for Fedora 14.

"At the change deadlines for Alpha and Beta, pushes to the branched 
development repository (e.g. /pub/fedora/linux/development/14), are 
suspended until the Release Candidate has been successfully tested and 
staging has started to the mirrors."

We have reached Fedora 14 Feature Complete

2010-09-15 Thread John Poelstra
Thank you to all the feature owners and developers for all their hard 
work to make Fedora 14 the best Fedora release yet.  We are almost to 
the end!

As a follow-up to last week's reminder
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2010-September/000676.html

ALL feature pages are now expected to be at 100% completion.  The 
following features are not listed at 100% complete and are being sent to 
FESCo (https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/468) for re-evaluation for 
inclusion in the Fedora 14 feature list if they remain incomplete:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/D_Programming (yes, a mere 
technicality at 99% done)
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/GdbIndex
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/GNUstep
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/MemoryDebuggingTools
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Python_2.7
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Spice

Thank you,
John

I don't recall any situation where someone submitted a feature at the

to finish by feature freeze.

Exceptions have been few and far between, and only granted, to my 
knowledge, for features that were 100% complete.

Those deadlines are set in such a way as to put as much development time 
as possible into a release schedule. From a release engineering 
perspective (the team proposing the schedules for approval by FESCo) it 
was determined that this was the highest value.

Maybe I'm reading more than you intended into what you said.  I don't 
believe it is part of FESCo's charter or any other Fedora leadership 
group to "make everyone happy." That is an impossible job.

My expectation of the leadership bodies in Fedora is that they oversee 
the current work and future direction of Fedora and do what is best for 
Fedora's success and future--even if there isn't unanimous happiness or 
agreement in the community.

The Fedora 14 Beta RC compose is scheduled for tomorrow.

ALL open bugs on Fedora 14 Blocker list (http://bit.ly/cZKo9K) MUST BE 
FIXED TODAY or we risk delaying the release.  In other words we are very 
short on time to address the remaining bugs.

Here is the current state of things based on the comments in each bug:

629719 :: NEW :: anaconda :: Anaconda Maintenance Team :: 
FormatCreateError: ('invalid device specification', '/dev/md127p3') :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=629719
Need to make a decision as to whether this bug should remain a blocker 
based on testing feedback

634205 :: NEW :: bluez :: Bastien Nocera :: Bluetooth always disabled on

graphics" creates vesa-using xorg.conf but doesn't blacklist nouveau :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628239
Need additional confirmation that this bug still exists, but most likely 
will be dropped.

633234 :: NEW :: anaconda :: Brian C. Lane :: Previous grub entry is not 
overwritten after upgrade with creating new bootloader :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=633234
Being researched by anacconda team.  Could someone from the anaconda 
team add a current status to the comments of the bug?

633315 :: NEW :: NetworkManager :: Dan Williams :: Connections not 
editable in nm-c-e in anaconda :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=633315
New bug.  Need assessment and a fix (if applicable) from maintainer ASAP

632510 :: MODIFIED :: anaconda :: Chris Lumens :: Installer exited 
abnormally when starting network in rescue mode ::

No, please do not create version 15. Shouldn't ABRT be looking to a file 
like /etc/fedora-release to determine the release version?

Rawhide is the repo where the packages and the version the bug was found 
in are until the repo branches and becomes 15, at which time version 15 
will be created and the open rawhide bugs that aren't features will be 
changed to 15.

Open Fedora 14 Blocker Bugs Need to be fixed ASAP

2010-09-13 Thread John Poelstra
Here are the current open Fedora 14 Beta Blocker bugs.

We need built packages and submitted to Bodhi that address each of these 
bugs in order to start the Fedora 14 Beta Release Candidate compose on 
2010-09-16.

If we are unable to start the RC compose on 2010-09-16 it could further 
delay the Fedora 14 Beta and the final release.

Fedora 14 Beta Blocker Meeting :: Friday, 2010-09-10 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EDT)

2010-09-09 Thread John Poelstra
When: Friday, 2010-09-10 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EDT)
Where: #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net

Without these bugs fixed we can't compose the Fedora 14 Beta Release 
Candidate on 2010-09-16.

We'll be discussing these bugs to determine if they meet the criteria, 
should stay on the list, and are getting the attention they need:

629719 :: NEW :: anaconda :: Anaconda Maintenance Team :: 
FormatCreateError: ('invalid device specification', '/dev/md127p3') :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=629719

blacklist nouveau :: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628239

basic video driver" option at the initial screen ::

"Clocksource tsc unstable" error and causes the system to freeze after 
cpu-scaling detection :: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630781

621027 :: NEW :: fedora-logos :: Tom "spot" Callaway :: Graphical screen 
in anaconda shows F-13 :: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=621027

If you are the owner of any of these bugs, kindly update the comments 
with your feedback as to whether you believe it is a blocker and what 
your plans for fixing the bug are.

Do you have an issue you believe should be fixed before the Fedora 14 
Beta ships?  Please consider the following criteria when escalating an 
issue: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Beta_Release_Criteria

Unresolved Fedora 14 Beta Blocker Bugs

2010-09-08 Thread John Poelstra
It's that time again!  The Fedora 14 Release Candidate is scheduled for 
creation one week from this Thursday on 2010-09-16.  That task cannot be 
completed if we have open blocker bugs (listed below).  The sooner we 
address these bugs the greater the likelihood we have of having time to 
fix last minute bugs closer to the RC and ship the Fedora 14 Beta one time.

If you are the owner of any of the bugs listed below, your prompt 
attention and feedback with your assessment and plans in the bugzilla 
comments would be most helpful.

What would the Fedora 15 tasks be besides, "Do awesome stuff in the 
'rawhide' branch?" :-)

I can certainly draft a Fedora 15 version of the schedule if people are 
already curious where the dates will land.

I agree.

Here's the historical data I've tracked:
http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-14/f9-f14-schedule-analysis-v4.ods

Because we are date-based and it has historically been that assumed 
people love Fedora so much they don't stop working on it over holidays, 
we've never considered the impact of holidays.

Our schedules have changed a lot up until Fedora 13 and 14.  This was 
the first time we did not "try something new" (after feature freeze) 
with the schedule.  I agree it will take a few release cycles to figure 
out what is working and what isn't.  This was my primary reason for 
arguing it was time to stop "trying something new" each release with the 
schedule.

Because of our current scheduling methodology the development length 
varies between releases, but for Fedora 13 and 14 the freezes and 
testing durations are set the same (except for the week slip of the 
Fedora 13 Alpha that we absorbed which I believe contributed to slipping 
the Beta and Final).

 The window for changes is already far too short.

This is because if the previous release is late it takes time (in 
theory) from the next release.  Some would argue that no times is taken 
from the subsequent release because rawhide is always available and can 
be committed to.

Fedora 13 was originally scheduled two weeks later than its original 
anchor of May 1st so as not to collide with the Ubuntu release.  Then it 
slipped two more weeks on its own.

Well put.  All the incremental steps along the road are documented here 
for Fedora 14.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Schedule_Retrospective

Each piece adds up to the point were we just can't finish in the 
allotted time.

Anecdotally, what happened in this release is not unusual.  Each release 
we have these "this shouldn't ever happen again" items and while they 
have different names the reasons are almost always the same--landing 
changes to packages or infrastructure right on the deadline or not 
budgeting enough time to recover before the deadline if something goes 
wrong.

It would be great to get more entries from other people on this wiki 
page.  Please don't send them to the list, but put them on the wiki page.

The correct time for this meeting is:
Thursday, August 12, 2010, @ 12:00 AM UTC

In other words, if you are in the USA, it will happen TODAY at:

20:00 Eastern or 17:00 Pacific

John

p.s. Sorry for the confusion as realize this contradicts the time that 
was on the detailed schedule.  Hopefully the three extra hours helps :)

[Test-Announce] Reminder: Bugzilla UPGRADE to 3.6 on August 13th 9:00 p.m.EDT [01:00 UTC]

2010-08-11 Thread John Poelstra
Sending on behalf of Dave Lawrence.  This will affect Fedora too.

REMINDER: Red Hat Bugzilla (bugzilla.redhat.com) will be unavailable on 
August 13th starting at 9:00 p.m. EDT [01:00 UTC] to perform
an upgrade from Bugzilla 3.4 to Bugzilla 3.6. We are hoping to be 
complete in no more than 5 hours barring any problems. Any
services relying on bugzilla.redhat.com may not work properly during 
this time. Please be aware in case you need use of those
services during the outage.

Also *PLEASE* make sure any scripts or other external applications that 
rely on bugzilla.redhat.com are tested against our test
server before the upgrade if you have not done so already (see original 
email below). Let the Bugzilla Team know immediately of any
issues found by reporting the bug in bugzilla.redhat.com against the 
Bugzilla product, version 3.6.

---

Greetings,

The Red Hat Bugzilla team is happy to announce another public beta 
release of the next version of Red Hat Bugzilla based on the
upstream 3.6 code base.

Please test drive at:

https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com

Over the years Red Hat has made substantial customizations to Bugzilla 
to fit into the Engineering
tool chain. Over time the upstream has incorporated some of these 
customizations or solved them in different ways. Upgrading reduces
our customization footprint (and thus maintenance) while bringing many 
bug fixes & enhancements.

The main area of focus for our public betas is stability. Functionality 
that currently works in our 3.4 code base should continue to
work as expected in the new 3.6 release. These include various ajax 
optimizations, needinfo actor support, frontpage.cgi, product
browser, several various UI enhancements, and of course the XMLRPC API.

Please feel free to point your various scripts and third party 
applications that use the XMLRPC API at the test server to make sure
they continue to function properly.

There are numerous other changes behind the scenes that we haven't 
listed. The goal is to make sure that functionality that people
have come to expect in 3.4 is possible in the new system.

There are also numerous new features/fixes that are part of the upstream 
3.6 release. For more detailed information on what has
changed since the last release, check out the release notes page at
https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/page.cgi?id=release-notes.html .

The database is a recent snapshot of the live database so should be 
useful for testing to make sure the information is displayed
properly and changeable. Also with a full snapshot it is possible to 
test for any performance related issues. Email has been
disabled so that unnecessary spam is not sent out. So
feel free to make changes to bugs to verify proper working order.

We are asking for everyone to get involved as much as possible with 
testing and feedback on the beta releases to help us make this
the most robust and stable release possible.

Please file any enhancement requests or bug reports in our current 
Bugzilla system at https://bugzilla.redhat.com . File them under
the Bugzilla product and relevant component with the version 3.6. With 
everyone's help we can make this a great release.

Thanks
The Red Hat Bugzilla Team

The biggest time consumer for me (and several people behind the scenes) 
this release (actually it probably happens every release, but I haven't 
taken this active a role before) has been pinging bugs where there is 
not enough information tell what is going on.

There has to be a better way.

If each person took a minute or two to add a comment of "what the next 
step is" or what they are waiting for, we'd have a much clearer picture 
of where the release stands.

The alternatives are to do nothing and miss our dates or spam the list 
and ping bugs until we get to the finish line.  Flags, better tooling, 
or more blocker meetings aren't the solution--people communicating 
proactively is.

Are there any other things I can do to help make this go more smoothly?

Are there any other people willing to formally step up and help me do this?

Going solely by the bugzilla comments which is where the latest 
information should be, it is very unclear (I would suggest unlikely) 
that we will be able to request a Release Candidate compose for the 
Fedora 14 Alpha from Release Engineering today.

I know folks are busy with lots of different things.  Without more 
information about what is happening or planned to happen next we don't 
have any other options. The result will be late release.

Fedora 14 Alpha Can Still Ship on Time IF these bugs get attention TODAY

2010-08-04 Thread John Poelstra
It's been an exciting ride so far and we're embracing the peaks and 
valleys of the Fedora release process in real time.  Even with all the 
recent changes and bugs we still have a shot at creating the Fedora 14 
Release Candidate on schedule TOMORROW.  Failure to successfully build 
the RC tomorrow could put the Fedora 14 Alpha at risk and push out the 
rest the schedule.

In order for Release Engineering to create the Fedora 14 Alpha RC, all 
of the bugs below must be in a state of CLOSED or ON_QA by 
tomorrow--Bodhi updates have been submitted and the packages are in 
updates-testing.  And, no new blocker bugs are identified before then.

If there are other bugs that are of concern that you believe meet the 
release criteria, add 'f14alpha' as a blocker or ask for help on #fedora-qa.

Thank you package maintainers and testers for all that you do!

John

Fedora 14 Alpha RC Compose is At Risk

2010-08-02 Thread John Poelstra
Tomorrow is the Alpha Deadline

Chances of composing the release candidate for the Fedora 14 Alpha on 
Thursday are not looking good, but a little time remains.  Release 
Engineering cannot spin a Fedora 14 Release Candidate until this Fedora 
14 Alpha Blocker is clear.

If you have any additional information about these bugs, PLEASE add it

Okay.  I was going off an earlier conversation that I'd understood to be 
"we have no more 'freezes,' period, in Fedora."

We didn't have this *freeze* reflected in the Fedora 14 schedule.  Is 
this the same as the task "Branch Fedora 14 from Rawhide?"

In "normal" circumstances, how long would you expect the freeze to last?

We need a clear answer by next Tuesday, Alpha Change Deadline or we'll 
be blocked on creating the release candidate on Aug 5.

If the packages aren't reviewed and in rawhide by now this feature will 
need to wait until Fedora 15.

Fedora 14 Milestone Reached: Feature Freeze-2010-07-27

2010-07-28 Thread John Poelstra
Yesterday, July 27, 2010, we reached Feature Freeze for Fedora 14

As previously noted, at Feature Freeze it is expected that all features 
are *significantly* "feature complete" and ready for testing: 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Feature_Freeze_Policy.

A review of the status section on the following feature pages shows that 
the following feature pages have not had a recent update OR the feature 
does not appear to be "feature complete" based on the information 
provided.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/CryptographyInKernel
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/MultipathInstall (last updated 
in February)
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/D_Programming
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/MeeGo_1.0 (is this really 
feature complete if packages still need to be reviewed?)
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Erlang_R14
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Gnome3 (listed at 55% done)
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Spice
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Go_Programming
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/EC2
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/systemd

Feature owners, please update your feature page as soon as possible so 
that we have the most current information possible going into our first 
test release.  Feature pages which are not updated or show the feature 
as significantly complete or testable by 2010-08-02 will be sent to 
FESCo for reconsideration.

Thank you,
John

p.s. all feature owners have been bcc'd on this email

Fedora 14 Alpha Unresolved Blocker Bug Count = 3

2010-07-26 Thread John Poelstra
It's "reminder guy" again with a public service announcement about the 
upcoming Fedora 12 Alpha Release.

Some may recall that I declared my own "feature" for the Fedora 14 
release (shipping Alpha, Beta, and Final on time) [1], even though I am 
not a package maintainer.  In order for that feature to be implemented I 
need your help. :-)

Starting today and up until the Fedora 14 Alpha blocker bug 
(http://bit.ly/d0weX3) has no bugs, I'll be sending out period reminders 
with a list of the bugs that aren't getting any love or attention.  If 
you're interested in helping me in this effort (and it would be much 
appreciated), please contact me off list.

Here's what we've got for today:

597858 :: NEW :: firefox :: Gecko Maintainer :: "SELinux is preventing 
firefox from making its memory writable and executable." crashes rawhide 
firefox start :: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=597858
   --Need some feedback from the package maintainer. No ETA when an 
estimated fix will be ready.

615443 :: NEW :: livecd-tools :: David Huff :: boot from liveusb fails 
(can't mount root filesystem) :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=615443
   --Need some feedback from the package maintainer. No ETA when an 
estimated fix will be ready.

617115 :: ASSIGNED :: livecd-tools :: David Huff :: rawhide live spins 
showing black screen instead of syslinux boot menu :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=617115
   --Really need some feedback from the package maintainer. No ETA when 
an estimated fix will be ready.

If the Fedora 14 Alpha Blocker list is not clear by 2010-08-05, Release 
Engineering will not create a release candidate for the alpha, thus 
potentially delaying the release.

Fedora 14 Feature Freeze is tomorrow (2010-07-27)

2010-07-26 Thread John Poelstra
A friendly reminder that tomorrow, Tuesday, July 27, 2010, is Feature 
Freeze for Fedora 14.

Feature Freeze means that all accepted features for Fedora 14 must be 
*significantly* "feature complete", ready for testing, and have a 
current status.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Feature_Freeze_Policy.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Policy/Milestones#Feature_Freeze

If you have a feature that will not be feature complete by tomorrow that 
is okay.  Simply change the wiki page category to 
Category:FeatureReadyForWrangler (edit text at the very bottom of the 
page) and include the reason and your plans in the commit comment.  I'll 
see that your feature is targeted for Fedora 15 instead.

Thank you,
John

[Test-Announce] Fedora 14 Alpha Blocker Bug Review Meeting #1 2010-07-23 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EST)

2010-07-22 Thread John Poelstra
When: Friday, 2010-07-23 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EST)
Where: #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net

It's that time again: blocker bug review meeting time! Friday is the 
SECOND blocker bug review meeting for the Fedora 14 Alpha.

Here are the current bugs listed as blocking the Alpha release. We'll be 
discussing all of these to determine if they meet the criteria, should 
stay on the list, and are getting the attention they need:

615443 :: NEW :: livecd-tools :: David Huff :: boot from liveusb fails 
(can't mount root filesystem) :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=615443
613695 :: MODIFIED :: anaconda :: Martin Gracik :: ImportError: cannot 
import name GObject :: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=613695
616090 :: MODIFIED :: anaconda :: Anaconda Maintenance Team :: Rescue 
mode fails :: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=616090

If you are the owner of these bugs, kindly update the comments with your 
feedback as to whether you believe it is a blocker and what your plans 
for fixing the bug are.

Do you have an issue you believe should be fixed before the Fedora 14 
Alpha ships?  Please consider the following criteria when escalating an 
issue: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Alpha_Release_Criteria

Our goal for Fedora 14, is to continue to make sure the release criteria 
matches up with our 'gut feelings' for what needs to be fixed before 
releasing.  So, if you see an issue that you think should be a blocker 
but doesn't meet the criteria, please add it as a blocker and mention at 
the meeting that the criteria does't cover it. Thanks!

To promote a bug for consideration as a blocker, simply add 'F14Alpha' 
to the "Blocks" field of the bug you are concerned about. A similar 
technique works for marking bugs as blocking the Beta or Final release, 
if appropriate, by using 'F14Beta' and 'F14Blocker' respectively.

Hope to see everyone on Friday.

John

Reminder: Fedora 14 Feature Freeze is Next Week (2010-07-27)

2010-07-20 Thread John Poelstra
It's hard to believe, but the window for full blown feature development 
closes soon.  A friendly reminder that next Tuesday, July 27, 2010 is 
Feature Freeze for Fedora 14.

Feature Freeze means that all accepted feature for the release are 
*significantly* "feature complete", ready for testing, and have a 
current status.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Feature_Freeze_Policy.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Policy/Milestones#Feature_Freeze

If you have any questions about what this means, please ask now.

Features which are not significantly feature complete at Feature Freeze 
will be be allowed to remain on an exception basis by FESCo or deferred 
to Fedora 15.

Thank you,
John

Fedora 14 Alpha Blocker Bug Review Meeting #1 2010-07-16 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EST)

When: Friday, 2010-07-16 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EST)
Where: #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net

It's that time again: blocker bug review meeting time! Friday is the 
FIRST blocker bug review meeting for the Fedora 14 Alpha.

Here are the current bugs listed as blocking the Alpha release. We'll be 
discussing all of these to determine if they meet the criteria, should 
stay on the list, and are getting the attention they need:

614488 ::  NEW ::  anaconda ::  Anaconda Maintenance Team ::  Dropped 
vesamenu.c32 from rawhide boot.iso ::

613695 ::  ASSIGNED ::  anaconda ::  Martin Gracik ::  ImportError: 
cannot import name GObject :: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=613695

If you are the owner of these bugs, kindly update the comments with your 
feedback as to whether you believe it is a blocker and what your plans 
for fixing the bug are.

Do you have an issue you believe should be fixed before the Fedora 14 
Alpha ships?  Please consider the following criteria when escalating an 
issue: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Alpha_Release_Criteria

Our goal for Fedora 14, is to continue to make sure the release criteria 
matches up with our 'gut feelings' for what needs to be fixed before 
releasing.  So, if you see an issue that you think should be a blocker 
but doesn't meet the criteria, please add it as a blocker and mention at 
the meeting that the criteria does't cover it. Thanks!

To promote a bug for consideration as a blocker, simply add 'F14Alpha' 
to the "Blocks" field of the bug you are concerned about. A similar 
technique works for marking bugs as blocking the Beta or Final release, 
if appropriate, by using 'F14Beta' and 'F14Blocker' respectively.

Hope to see everyone on Friday.

Long term I think flags will help streamline our process.  With the 
first Alpha blocker bug meetings starting next Friday it doesn't make 
sense for Fedora 14.  I agree there is probably enough time to write a 
proposal for how it could all work, but not enough time to get feedback 
on the proposal and definitely not enough time to implement and test 
everything before using it.

We can get better near term impact by addressing the recommendations 
from the QA retrospective around bugzilla.  I'm working on two of the 
tickets.

Fedora 14 test release blocker bugs

2010-07-06 Thread John Poelstra
Hard to believe, but Fedora QA starts its "Pre-Alpha Rawhide Acceptance 
Test Plan" testing this Thursday (2010-07-08).

We've run out of time and run way to implement a new means of tracking 
blocker bugs for Fedora--previously discussed in the context of using 
flags in Bugzilla.  We'll continue to use the same process we've used 
for past releases.

I've created tracker bugs for the Fedora 14 Alpha and Beta releases:

Fedora 14 Alpha = F14Alpha = 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=611990

Fedora 14 Beta = F14Beta = 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=611990

Other tracker bugs for Fedora 14 are at: 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Trackers#Fedora_14

The criteria for considering a bug a release blocker is at:
Alpha--http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Alpha_Release_Criteria#Alpha_Blocker_Bugs

Beta--http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Beta_Release_Criteria#Beta_Blocker_Bugs

Fedora 14 Feature Submission Deadline is One Week Away (2010-07-13)

2010-07-06 Thread John Poelstra
This email serves as the last reminder for the Fedora 14 Feature 
Submission Deadline--Tuesday, July 13, 2010.  After this date newly 
submitted features will be targeted for Fedora 15 unless an exception is 
granted by FESCo.

Accepted Fedora 14 features so far: 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/14/FeatureList

If you are a current feature page owner, thank you for submitting your 
feature for Fedora 14 and contributing to the next release of Fedora. 
If you haven't updated your feature page in the last month it would be a 
great help to every one if you would do so now.

As we start to reach deadlines and test releases for Fedora 14, more and 
more people will query the feature pages.  We'd love to know that what 
they find is current and correct.

Thank you,
John
