= Fedora Release Engineering Meeting :: Monday 04-JUN-07 = 

Spam-o-matic for rawhide

 * the tool that generated the broken deps report at the end of the old rawhide emails
 * DECISION:
 * notting is going to get 'spam-o-matic' working for rawhide reports again
 * including a full report of broken deps at the bottom of rawhide report mails like before the merge, and specific individual mails to maintainers with broken deps.
 * f13 will let mike schwendnt know that this is coming.

Updates policy

 * DECISION:
 * rel-eng is proposing to FESCo that Update tool defaults to pushing to updates-testing
 * Maintainer has option to "skip testing" and can do so without an "approver" roadblock.
 * UPdate gets marked as "hot" somehow visually so that releng / qa can look over before pushing if necessary

Signing unsigned 7 packages

 * DECSISON:
 * To do some final Fedora 7 tree maintenance, replace unsigned packages with signed versions
 * chmod 644 all the files (not dirs).
 * Test with cached yum metadata to see what happens, push to mirror master, alert mirrors.
 * Leave the i486/586/686/athlon stuff alone, fix those by updates.

Disable tagged builds from srpms in koji

 * DECISION:
 * Koji's little know ability to accept builds for tags directly from srpms rather than CVS checkouts will be disabled
 * This will prevent people from getting builds into collections that aren't managed in CVS.
 * This will NOT disrupt admins ability to bootstrap new arches.

Freeze Policy

 * DECISION:
 * Defer to a subsequent meeting
 * Discuss release Freeze Requirments
 * determine what they are
 * document them
 * determine how to best manage them
 * get input from QA
 * Start discussion on fedora-maintainers-list the write up results into a wiki page
