[Test-Announce] 2014-11-26 @ 1600 UTC ** Blocker Review Meeting

2014-11-24 Thread Mike Ruckman
# F21 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2014-11-26
# Time: 16:00 UTC (run "date -d '2014-11-26 16:00 UTC'" to see local time)
# Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net

While we just had a out of band blocker review today after the QA meeting, we'll
still be having our regularly scheduled blocker review this Wednesday. We
managed to knock out all of the blockers and FEs this morning, but still we
had 2 proposed blockers and 1 proposed FE since.

I would get ready for more proposals before the meeting on Wednesday, but if we
don't get any it should be a short meeting. Maybe this time around we can all
watch the FEsCo meeting :)

If you want to take a look at the accepted blockers, the full list can be found
here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/21/final/buglist

We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate the Final
Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not
fixed. Information on the release criteria for F21 can be found on the
wiki [0].

works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out the SOP

2014-11-24 Thread Andre Robatino
As per the Fedora 21 schedule [1], Fedora 21 Final Test Compose 4 (TC4)
is now available for testing. Content information, including changes,
can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6031#comment:18
. Please see the following pages for download links (including delta
ISOs) and testing instructions. Normally dl.fedoraproject.org should
provide the fastest download, but download-ib01.fedoraproject.org is
available as a mirror (with an approximately 1 hour lag) in case of
trouble. To use it, just replace "dl" with "download-ib01" in the
download URL.

Well, I can review all these three packages. We have break coming up
(from Thursday) and I can review it that day.

I am assigning the bugs to myself. If someone wants to go review the
packages before I get to it, please go ahead.

Yeah, that's a valid concern and one I'm not ignoring. I'm just
concerned that (going by F21 Alpha and Beta) the "hero testing" doesn't
result in avoiding a slip most of the time. In the case of Alpha, that
was going on for a month before we finally were able to release. That's
not fair to QA and it *certainly* doesn't make it seem like something
new contributors would want to put themselves through.

I've now done this for F22, the following packages being affected:
https://github.com/hughsie/createrepo_as_logs/commit/821f4071315e0f398f217c45a44e3a397955a75f

Thanks to all the upstream and downstream maintainers who have
installed larger icons.

The copyright status should be documented in the patches, or in 
debian/copyright.  If it is unclear, you can file a bug in the Debian 
BTS.  Just send email with a descriptive subject to 
, and start the message with


Package: src:PACKAGE-NAME

(where PACKAGE-NAME is the source package in question), followed by a 
blank line, and list the patches whose licensing you consider unclear.


I think most developers would assume that the patches are licensed under 
the same conditions as the upstream code, though.



[1] I think the patches itself are fine to ship also considering the Fedora
upstream-first policy:
- patches have been submitted in the official issue tracker
- upstream project is pretty inactive but not dead
- patches are fairly small, mostly build-system changes for distributions and
   fixing the test suite


You can also pretend that Debian is upstream. :-)

You don't have to assume. Firefox is open source so you can just check

 Same happens with these tiles. No data is sent back to Mozilla unless
 you *choose* to click one of the promoted tiles.

You don't have to assume. Firefox is open source so you can just check
the code before spreading FUD.

  Right, makes sense. I'll do that. I'm from Fedora Security Team above; that 
is where this topic/discussion came up and lead to this thread.
Thank you.

Much depends on what's in the tile. For example an embedded 1 pixel
transparent gif, commonly known as a "web bug", and loaded from a
third party web repository such as one of the many misleading aliases
for ad.doubleclick.net, is one of the favorites. Another is crafting
the URL used by the displayed advertising page to contain metadata
about the browsing client. Unless the tiles are vetted by, hosted by,
and have their content reviewed and manually sanitized by someone both
paranoid and content over at Mozilla, it's safe to assume there is
tracking information embedded in the tiles. The tracking information
has become ubiquitous in far too much web content, especially in paid
advertising content.

I'm afraid it's not reasonable to assume that just because Mozilla is
providing the hooks to publish web ads that those web ads do not,
themselves, collect and use personal user data, especially the client
IP and browsing history.


The Ads title looks like:


   https://citizenfourfilm.com/"; href="https://citizenfourfilm.com/";>
title="Pin this site at its current position">
title="Remove this site">



So Mozilla provides offline thumbnail of the page and URL, nothing else. 
The ads work completely offline.
