[Fedora 28] Call for Test Days
by Sumantro Mukherjee
Hey All,
Another testing cycle is finally upon us, and it's about time we got some
Test Days scheduled/planned for the F28 cycle.
This cycle has major changes and could use some testing love - a full list can be found here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/28/ChangeSet
F28 also has several self-contained changes that could use some testing.
So my thought was if there were things people would like to get tested,
but didn't think it warranted an entire day - then we could group these together and run a test day
to poke at several different things at the same time.
For those of you not familiar with test days,
a test day is an online event aimed at testing a specific a feature of an upcoming Fedora
Release.By utilizing IRC for organization/coordination and a Wiki page for instructions and results,
test days are easy to organize.
Anyone can request to host a test day or request that the QA team help you out with the organization of the test day.
A test day can run for any feature or area of a distribution that focused testing would be useful for.
More information on test days can be found here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days
To propose a test day, file an issue on Pagure[https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/issues] with F28 as Milestone.
A full explanation can be found here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days/Create
The SOP for hosting a test day is here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/SOP_Test_Day_management
If you have any questions about test days or the process,
please don't hesitate to contact me or any other QA Team member
in #fedora-qa on Freenode or respond on the test list.
Thanks and happy testing!
Thanks

Proposal to CANCEL: 2017-11-13 blocker review meeting
by Adam Williamson
Hi folks! I'm proposing we cancel the blocker review meeting for
Monday, as there are no proposed Server Final blockers at present.
Please yell if you think we will need to run a meeting. Thanks!

Greetings testers!
It's time for another meeting! We've skipped the last few weeks, and
while we're still on F27 Final validation, we do have at least one
topic I'd like to discuss.
Note that daylight savings time ends in most of North America this
weekend, so we'll be changing the meeting time to 16:00 UTC. If
daylight savings ends (clocks go back) for you this weekend, the
meeting should be at the same local time as always. If you don't
observe daylight savings or it ends at a different time, the meeting
will be one hour later in your local time than it was last week.
If anyone has any other items for the agenda, please reply to this
email and suggest them! Thanks.
== Proposed Agenda Topics ==
1. Previous meeting follow-up
2. Fedora 27 status
3. Fedora 27 Modular Server validation test approach planning
4. Open floor

2017-11-06 @ ** 17:00 ** UTC - Fedora 27 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson
# F27 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2017-11-06
# Time: ** 17:00 ** UTC
# Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net
Hi folks! We currently have only one proposed freeze exception for
Fedora 27. However, in case more blockers show up over the weekend,
I'm scheduling a review meeting for Monday; if there aren't any,
I'll just run a very quick meeting where we don't do anything.
Note that daylight savings time ends in most of North America this
weekend, so we'll be changing the meeting time to 17:00 UTC. If
daylight savings ends (clocks go back) for you this weekend, the
meeting should be at the same local time as always. If you don't
observe daylight savings or it ends at a different time, the meeting
will be one hour later in your local time than it was last week.
If you have time this weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or
accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found
here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ .
We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the
Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not
fixed. Information on the release criteria for F27 can be found on the
wiki [0].
For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process,
check out these links:
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process
And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting
works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out
the SOP on the wiki:
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting
Note that for the special case of the Server release being split from
the main release stream for Fedora 27, we have created separate Server
blocker tracking bugs and will be following the same basic process for
the Server release dates using those trackers.
Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!
