Since you haven't been around lately maybe you haven't noticed this, but here's some interesting numbers for F24. For Alpha there were 35 blocker bugs (approximately - I'm using the BZ tree view which may include some bugs that got fixed while they were proposed). Of those, by count, 3 were anaconda-ecosystem bugs. For Beta, we have ~28 blockers. 4 of those are/were anaconda-ecosystem bugs. Also note that most of the anaconda-related bugs were caused not by changes in anaconda, but by disruptive changes in other components that anaconda had to adapt to. And that all the anaconda blockers were resolved very promptly and early. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
