I would think we keep log/execution data for current milestone-1, so if we're in Beta, we keep Beta and Alpha logs. It's not very common that something breaks in Final and we need to look all the way back to Alpha, is it? As for packages not in the frozen set, I'd think 60-90 days would be enough. > > 2.

I don't know that we need fesco for this decision, but it might be a good thing to make sure is documented somewhere should someone ask. > > Tim -- // Mike -- Fedora QA freenode: roshi http://roshi.fedorapeople.org _______________________________________________ qa-devel mailing list qa-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/qa-devel
