Hi,
Who is responsible for building the release notes RPM for the 1st of April?
Cool Murray, thanks for volunteering!
:-)
Hah!
I'll start practicing building the RPMs now. Do you run "make release-srpm", or should it be...."make omf"?
It will be 'make release-srpm', but don't expect it to work right away -- it's very dependent on translators to have finished their work. When they're done, we usually have to tweak some of the modules' po/LINGUAS files to keep errant locales from breaking the build if we can't fix them ourselves.
Thanks for your help.
Looking at the schedule (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Schedule):
* 31 March 2008: PO files due from L10N
Preview Release translation & development freeze
1 April 2008: fedora-release-notes package PR to Fedora release engineering
Is this by April 1, or can it be UTC 2359 April 1?
Do I have to do anything more, other than build it, and check it back into CVS?
What happens if a translation messes up the build? Is there time for the translator to fix it?
Cheers,
Murray.
