#1164 F20 Changes - Progress on Changes Freeze
Closed None Opened 10 years ago by jreznik.

This is a list of Changes at risk for Fedora 20 (as for Changes Freeze on 2013-08-20).

Placeholder for now to add it to meeting agenda, I'm working with Change owners on status updates for Wednesday meeting (and will ask FESCo members reading this ticket to update theirs Changes;-). Due to limited time for F20, current state is not as good as I'd like to see. I'll prepare final report for the meeting.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=Changes%20Tracking&product=Fedora and expected state is MODIFIED or commented state in BZ.

States description
ASSIGNED -> accepted by FESCo with on going development
MODIFIED -> change is substantially done and testable

System Wide Changes includes contingency deadlines we want to track. Difference compared to the old Feature process is that we don't want to remove Changes from the list but we want to be sure, what's state is the Change for Alpha release (so we cover it properly for Release announcement and Release Notes). The deadline for finalization should be Changes 100% complete - for Self Contained. System Wide depends on Contingency plan. I'd like to see less strict submission deadline for Self Contained Changes too.

For app installer - update: The hawkey backend is available in PackageKit git master. gnome-software is available in git.gnome.org. Neither is in f20 yet. We are aiming for a first gnome-software release by end of August, and will package it asap, then.

It got lost with change to Tracking bug in the wiki. Owners contacted for more details.

Quite a few Self Contained Changes still in development but no action needed at least for Alpha (except no announcement coverage for this changes). System Wide Changes with Beta as contingency plan trigger, a few should be consider done, just not udpated by owner (I was away for a few days...). Changes under concern already covered separately by FESCo.

From 2013-09-04 FESCo meeting:
* AGREED: retarget Kdump with Secure Boot for F-21 (+:8, -:0, 0:0)
(notting, 19:23:56)

No action needed until Wrangler tells us.

Wrangler contacted me to add this back to the agenda for this week.

I will follow up with owners of Changes that need updates.

So far postponed Changes:
{{{
998511 Apache OpenOffice
998522 DNSSEC support for FreeIPA
998526 FreeIPA OTP UI
998532 Snapshot and Rollback Tool
998545 SSSD Smart Card Support
998565 Allow kdump on secureboot machines
998566 Enable SELinux Labeled NFS Support
}}}

All Change owners were notified, gathering requested info for the next FESCo meeting.

Current state is

{{{
998540 Ryu Network Operating System
- no reply from the owner, no communication for a very long time

998527 OS Installer Support for LVM Thin Provisioning
- blocked on 958464, already in POST state (missing pre-prepared LVM profiles)

998503 Vagrant
- missing package reviews: 1020456, 1020457

}}}

Proposal:
- mark Ryu Network Operating System as incomplete, postpone to F21
- Vagrant as Self Contained Change, not on any official media - wait for completion by Final Change Deadline, only for marketing purposes
- same for OS Installer Support for LVM Thin Provisioning - Change is completed, missing user friendliness bits (profiles, LVM team is aware of it)

For Changes process, we don't want to remove incomplete Changes from the list, still being tracked but not featured by marketing, considering Change/Feature differences.

AGREED: moving ryu to f21, wait on vagrant and lvm thin provisioning. (+8,0,0)
