damNageHack hi 15:02
jlaska damNageHack: hello :) 15:02
jlaska wwoods: adamw: you guys around? 15:02
jlaska I don't think this time slot works great for maxamillion, but lemme check ... 15:03
jlaska I've got a conflict @ the half hour increment ... so let's get started 15:04
jlaska if we run over, I may need help closing out the proposed agenda items 15:04
jlaska Proposed agenda - http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2010-April/090413.html 15:05
jlaska #topic Previous meeting follow-up 15:05
jlaska #info jlaska + fenris02 to review whether F-13-Beta is an option for boot.fedoraproject.org 15:05
jlaska This was easy, thanks to the infrastructure team ... boot.fp.org should already have links to Fedora 13 beta 15:05
jlaska #info Completed by the infrastructure team, yay infrastructure! 15:06
jlaska #info adamw + jlaska - Bodhi QA workflow status check-in 15:06
kparal jlaska: is it necessary to re-download the images? 15:06
jlaska kparal: good question ... I tested by downloading the images 15:07
jlaska so I don't know if the configs are pulled from the server, or are on the media 15:07
kparal ok 15:08
* kparal will test some day 15:08
jlaska kparal: that'll likely need a follow-up to #fedora-admin for guidance, I'm not sure 15:08
jlaska adamw and I spoke w/ lmacken last week, he is working to organize a lot of TRAC tickets into a bodhi-2.0 milestone 15:09
jlaska and expected to have that finished out in the next few weeks 15:09
jlaska bodhi-2.0 milestone - https://fedorahosted.org/bodhi/milestone/2.0 15:09
jlaska Some initial requirements gathering will also take place in the coming weeks 15:09
jlaska my understanding is this will be helpful for us so we can coordinate AutoQA dependencies and document/educate 'proventesters' on the QA workflow through bodhi 15:10
jlaska we had several other follow-up items, but I've moved those into specific topics below ... 15:10
jlaska so I'll dive in, unless anyone has other thoughts 15:11
* Viking-Ice sneaks in a bit late.. 15:11
jlaska Viking-Ice: welcome! 15:11
jlaska #topic Fedora 13 RC test status 15:11
jlaska #info the current deliverable I'm working on is the Pre-RC Branched Acceptance Test Run 15:12
jlaska a new anaconda was built, and given proper karma in bodhi to be available for Branched testing 15:12
jlaska it's an unusual worflow to run through an acceptanc test, but that's hopefully something we can work out post F-13 15:13
jlaska the Friday Branched compose failed to build due to deps, but it looks like things are okay today 15:13
jlaska I'll be posting a test summary to the list later this afternoon 15:13
jlaska #info there was a F13Blocker review last week - see http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-bugzappers/2010-04-23/fedora-bugzappers.2010-04-23-16.06.html 15:14
jlaska We can expect the following milestones this week ... 15:14
jlaska #info 2010-04-29 - Test 'Final' Test Compose 15:14
jlaska #info 2010-04-29 - PreUpgrade test day - Test_Day:2010-04-29_Preupgrade 15:14
jlaska #info 2010-04-30 - Final Blocker Meeting (f13blocker) #3 15:15
jlaska In other F-13 testing news, there have been some i18n test considerations under discussion 15:15
jlaska you may have see this already from a ticket mail to test@ 15:15
damNageHack how is a release critical bug marked in bugzilla? 15:16
jlaska damNageHack: to mark a bug as a release blocker, you add the blocks: F13Blocker 15:16
jlaska damNageHack: and add a quick statement indicating what release criteria are impacted by the bug 15:16
damNageHack k thx. i will not do such a thing. only for my information :) 15:16
jlaska damNageHack: no worries, folks are encouraged to escalate issues of concern 15:17
jlaska we've documented what are considered the most common release criteria at Fedora_13_Final_Release_Criteria 15:17
damNageHack i am thinking of the bug with gtk2 v2.19/2.20 + thunar/pcmanfm 15:17
kparal damNageHack: current blocker list is here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=507681&hide_resolved=1 15:17
jlaska however, there are always cases where bugs don't fit a criteria ... feel free to raise those issues on the mailing list, or #fedora-qa 15:18
damNageHack k tx 15:18
jlaska So lastly, if anyone wants to contribute to additional i18n tests ... feel free to add your thoughts to https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa/ticket/63 15:18
damNageHack i can see a lot of still open bugs :) 15:18
jlaska damNageHack: 18 non-MODIFIED bugs ... we have a lot of testing MODIFIED and ON_QA bugs to do 15:19
jlaska okay ... next agenda item ... 15:19
damNageHack i am sure, it can be done 15:19
damNageHack fedora has a high quality, i like that :) 15:20

jlaska #topic Proventesters check-in 15:20
jlaska We had 2 action items to follow-up on from last week 15:20
jlaska looks like maxamillion completed both of them 15:20
jlaska #info maxamillion - sent Proventester draft to test@l.fp.org for final review (see http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2010-April/090252.html) 15:21
jlaska #info maxamillion requested creation of proventester FAS group (see https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/2114) 15:21
jlaska thanks maxamillion! :) 15:21
jlaska he's not around right now, but I was going to ask the obvious ... 15:22
jlaska what's next? 15:22
kparal now to populate the group 15:22
jlaska yeah, is it time to request applications to the group? 15:22
jlaska do we know how to evaluate and mentor applicants? 15:22
jlaska Has bodhi been changed to use 'proventester' FAS group, instead of 'qa' for critpath updates? 15:23
kparal the mentoring process could be described, yes 15:23
lmacken jlaska: I have myself CC'd to the proventesters infrastructure ticket, but it's still not completed, from what I can tell 15:23
lmacken once it's done, changing it in bodhi will be trivial 15:24
jeff_hann jlaska: what are the qualities required for someone to become a proventester? 15:24
jlaska lmacken: is this the ticket to create the group, or to change bodhi to use proventester group? 15:24
lmacken jlaska: to create the group... once it's created, I'll change it in bodhi 15:24
jlaska lmacken: eggsellent, thank you! 15:25
jlaska #action current members of the 'qa' group ... apply to 'proventesters' 15:25

jlaska kparal: jeff_hann: I can take an action to follow-up w/ maxamillion after the meeting 15:26
* kparal brb in 2min 15:26
jeff_hann jlaska: a page where the exact criteria needed would be useful 15:26
jlaska jeff_hann: yeah I agree 15:26
jlaska I believe we started that page a few weeks back, but that might just need to be refreshed 15:27
jeff_hann jlaska: and instructions as how/what to fill in TRAC 15:27
jlaska #info a page where exact criteria needed for proventesters would be useful 15:27

kparal I can say a few words for jskladan 15:34
jlaska kparal: great, please go for it! 15:34
kparal he created a test suite for resultdb API 15:34
kparal and made some first draft of implementing the API 15:34
kparal and of course the test suite failed, so he's now deep in solving the issues :) 15:35
kparal but we could have some first attempts for API implementation soon 15:35
kparal at least from what I caught 15:35
