Summary
Working group approved a rotating chair, confirmed a magazine article is urgently required for Fedora 44, and expressed skepticism about the 2028 bootc transition.
Approved Rotating Chair Schedule
The working group approved implementing a monthly rotating chair position to distribute the commitment since no volunteers stepped forward. The rotation schedule conflicts will be resolved ad-hoc, with the list starting with Matis or Allan.
Addressing Crash Reporting Future
The group addressed the plan to remove all ABRT components for Fedora 45 because the project is abandoned and unsupported. Neal Gompa suggested exploring Canonical’s Apport and Launchpad for crash reporting, despite requiring Fedora users to have an Ubuntu One account.
Flatpak and Bootc Strategy
A mandatory prerequisite for implementing the Flatpak filter in Fedora Workstation is designing a prioritization dialogue for GNOME Software. Neal Gompa expressed skepticism that the bootc transition for Fedora Workstation will be complete by the 2028 target date, suggesting a later timeframe is more realistic.
