= Open discussion =

F10 syslinux package
Adamw noted that livecd-iso-to-disk is failing on F10 systems when trying to create F11 live images. A lot of Test Day testers are writing their live images only to find the systems are not bootable due to a bug in the F10 syslinux package.

Schedule Change proposal
Wwoods provided an update on the initial schedule proposal raised in the previous meeting. After discussion and research, concluded this effort is not worth continuing. Instead, time should be spent on better tools for testing and reporting, so we can do more efficient testing.

Communication of Beta Known Issues

 * jlaska asked how well we are holding up with our conclusion from the previous week.
 * Adamw suggested that while the announcement links to the release notes, it doesn't specify the Known issues. Perhaps this could change for future milestones (check-in with Rahul)?
 * Wwoods reminded us about Warren Togami's rawhide status blog - http://rawhidewatch.wordpress.com/

Fedora Calendaring System
Adamw noted that the infrastructure team is moving closer to infrastructure hosted calendaring system. More details on fedora-infrastructure-list (https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-infrastructure-list/2009-March/msg00266.html).
