At the least, that should be rephrased. Negative feedback isn't the thing you really want to trigger off of. It's more "if there is no significant discussion" or something similar. You can have something with a lot of positive discussion that is still a large and invasive Feature that should be reviewed by FESCo. Also, there was dissent already in the "auto-approving" of leaf-features during the meeting discussion so I am not sure that auto-accepting of Features in general given a lack of response is ever going to actually happen. I personally wouldn't vote for it. josh -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

As I said in the meeting yesterday, I think the definition of a Feature needs to be cleared up before we can really tackle this one. Feature to me is something important enough that it shouldn't be auto-accepted. If there is some other class of thing people submit that isn't a Feature, then I might be for auto-accepting of those. josh -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Alternately, "Feature" could be the term for the any small or big thing which is useful to track and tout for marketing purposes, and big technical changes could be, I dunno... "Major Changes". Or "Alterations" or "Evolutions" or "Disruptions" (well, that's a little negative so not that). For example adding systemd is a feature, while making it the default is a big change. Same with firewalld. UsrMove wasn't really a feature *at all*, but definitely a big change. -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

The meeting minutes showed that Fedora Marketing is already filtering the current Feature list and picking the important ones to highlight, so I don't think continuing to call the small ones Features is accurate. I mean, sure it could be done but it seems to make more sense to change the name of the small ones instead. Or just have them go to release notes. The main point is, calling them all the same thing is confusing and leads to a basically useless "Feature list". josh -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Yep, as the main idea is to collect as much ideas/changes to be publicly announced and if we say only part of these are Features AFTER discussion/review - I'm ok with that. As it's the goal - to know about changes people do not consider features but definitely could be raised to the feature status. The common example I see as a wrangler - hey, I'm not sure this functionality is worth creating feature, and you know, the process, and nobody would care... But once the feature is accepted - wow, I got so much response, from all people from different projects that touch the area and we're now working on integration etc. -> *VISIBILITY*. Do not call it "Feature Process" but "Planning process" - as it fits the decision to create F19 schedule after we know the scope of it based on proposals. And then - I'm ok with even more terms - Feature for something we really want to feature and make Marketing's life easier - so not based on scope, but marketing and define more "boxes"...

Everybody probably agrees that Gnome 3 should be updated in next release. 3) Controversial feature, such as /tmp on tmpfs 4) Only negative feedback. E.g. lets move to yet another init system. 5) WTF feedback. Why are you even proposing this minor update of this unknown library as a feature (but this is non-category, since it will be probably rejected by Package Wrangler already)? These are 5 categories of features I can imagine. Now please tell me if the categorization is not clear and if that is not obvious how to proceed with these.

No that is not enough because in the end you will only get feedback from users of those feature not necessary from developers of other components that might get affected by that feature.

That's the problem - FeatureList should not be used tech journalists at all! It's internal tracking "tool". For journalists, we have Talking Points [1] - originally written for Ambassadors! (And yep, good time to spin it up). We have Beats... Announcements based on these with picked up the most important features without going into too much details - easier for journalist to create a good article.

So let's not call that internal list features list but use some other term and then with cooperation with marketing and docs pick up let say ten most important things that happened in recent release and feature them as The Features.

While I cannot answer for Jóhann, I think a proposal could be to contact for example QA, as some features will have a huge impact for them. Contact irc support, as they may have some insight on the common issue reported by people, etc. Forcing everybody to be on -devel doesn't scale, that's why there is SIG and specialized lists. I remember having seen several people being annoyed of the high volume of list like debian-devel, cooker@mandriva, and in the end, this didn't helped much the communication. Christophe Wickert spoke last year about the idea of having a common gathering ( ie, some kind of inter team council ) for having such discussion, dubbed the fedora council. ( http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-townhall/2011-11-17/fedora_townhall.2011-11-17-23.13.log.html ) Maybe that could be explored ( ie, that would just be a extension of the go/no go meeting from a organisational point of view ). The way this is done for Mageia is to have a weekly irc meeting to talk about various subjects, but I am not fond of adding more irc meeting.

It is a big disappointment that Fedora is more and more turning its back on security. If I remember correctly, Fedora was one of the leading distributions providing and using signed packages. But with time this is more and more invalidated and people are more and more expected to install unsigned packages or not to verify them. At least back in 2010 malicious mirrors were still acknowledged as a security risk for Fedora users and signed packages were mentioned as a counter measure: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mirror_manager_security_risks How come it became less important now? Actually it is even easier to attack users as more and more mobile devices are used. And what is even worse, the whole problem of not verifying packages on upgrade or the upgrade image itself is not even prominently communicated. There is nothing in the release notes about this: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Release_Notes/sect-Release_Notes-Changes_for_Sysadmin.html#idm32350976 I am very disappointed about this and I think this this a bad decission. :-( Regards Till -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Anaconda only needs to do this, if it is used for network installs.

Since the release notes for the Beta release point to the final release notes (as of yesterday they did actually point to the release notes for Fedora 13 in the wiki), it should be mentioned there already. It can still be removed if it is to be fixed. > You nominated the bug as requiring a release note on 29th November, then > complained that it wasn't in the release notes on 7th December - > basically you gave the docs team about a week of turnaround time, which > isn't a heck of a lot with a release with as many changes as F18. The whole update process and procedure using fedup is afaik not even properly designed or communicated. If I remember correctly for a long time only vague information about a new update tool to be written were posted to the devel list. And even now it is totally unclear how it will work. On the other hand the Beta should be used for upgrade testing. Publishing it before it is ready and all information is available is the problem. If more time is needed to properly document it, then the time should be taken instead of releasing the Beta without proper documentation.
