#307: Add multi-desktop and multi-arch images to validation process ----------------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: adamwill | Owner: adamwill Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: Fedora 18 Component: Blocker/NTH review process | Version: Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | ----------------------------------------+------------------------ For the last few releases, we've been releasing two dual-layer DVD images - one contains both the 32-bit and 64-bit DVD images, and the other contains the major live spins all together with a menu for picking which one to boot.
We don't really encourage public downloads of these, but we _do_ print them on physical media and distribute them at conferences and via the ambassadors program. Apparently, for F17, at least one of the images turned out to be badly broken and we printed/gave out several thousand coasters. Whoops. So, it seems we can't rely on these compendium images to always be working properly, and QA should be validating them before they're used for anything.
We'll need to co-ordinate with releng, FAmSCo and possibly FPL on this one, for timing issues. The compendium images are built _after_ the main set of final release images, and this is probably unavoidable, because we have to sign off definitely on the release images before building compilations of them. So we should probably define an official schedule and process for building and testing the compendium images right after the go/no-go, on a schedule that works for FAmSCo and regularly-scheduled events where these media are distributed. CCing Robyn (FPL) and cwickert for FAmSCo.

I lied! I didn't cc him. And now I can't figure out how to add him to the CC. The QA trac doesn't show that field for me.
