Live Upgrade Special Interest Group

Live upgrade SIG is a team of Fedora developers and users interested in making upgrades via yum work smoothly.

Mission

The purpose of this SIG is to make live upgrades a well tested and supported option within Fedora. This involves the following

Often test upgrading to the current development branch of one of the test releases from the last two general releases and send reports to the fedora-test list and file any bug reports to http://bugzilla.redhat.com.

Help track and fix packaging problems including lack of proper versioning (E-V-R), lack of proper obseletes etc that prevent smooth upgrades.

Help others in the Fedora community workaround or better yet fix any upgrade issues.

Document the live upgrade path and any issues including workarounds in the appropriate places.

Help convince the Fedora team to make live upgrades a well supported option.
