Is there a way we could do these as ".1" releases, with orchestrated QA for the big update rather than a whole release? Or, if we can combine this with having a gated Rawhide meant for day-to-day use (and using ostree for rollbacks), would that be adequate for the "on the edge" GNOME community? -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
