Doing a PPA release for me generates a lot of small articles like: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/06/libreoffice-360-beta-1-released-ubuntu.html calling for testing. Having that from Fedora too would be nice.

(Caolan?) why is it necessary to have distribution specific builds for testing? everything except for system integration/mime type associations can be tested by installing the generic "archive" or "rpm" (via user install script) installation sets on any Linux distro. it looks like the "rpm" installation set is available here: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/?type=rpm-x86_64&lang=en-US&version=3.6.0 is there a lack of documentation of how to install this locally without system integration for testing purposes? if so, please tell me where to add documentation :) ___ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/

What we always do for Fedora is build the betas into "rawhide" i.e. to-be-Fedora-18. So our 3.6 builds will appear there soon. (http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/libreoffice/) We don't build parallel-installable-with-3.5 builds for earlier stable Fedora's or anything like that. In this cycle Fedora 17 will move along the 3.5.X series and Fedora 18/RHEL-7 along 3.6.X.

(Bjoern) - dailies should always be build from tip of master, not including patches pending review - lots of conflicting opinions/views about tinderbox capabilities: - "we can build and test every commit on linux" - tinderbox with l10n has a 12 hour turnaround (that is ~50 commit steps) - Can we switch l10n off? (Florian) - discussion somewhat warped by these different assumptions community building/communication (Cor?): - beta testers for 3.6.0 beta 1 - 3.6.0 beta 1 available in ppa (Bjoern) - Wheres a good howto? (Florian) - http://www.webupd8.org/2012/06/libreoffice-360-beta-1-released-ubuntu.html - best to install in a VM still - unfortunately no ppa stats: https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1006323 - so far 16 beta bug reports in the first two weeks (vs. 25 for 3.5) - might just be better quality - we need more beta testers AI:- Are there any Bug Hunting Sessions in the pipe? (Cors) - SUSE will prepare packages for the beta for testing too (Petr) AI: - Could Fedora do this too? (Caolan?) - german QA meeting starting half an hour after the call (Florian/Rainer) bibisect for 3.5 release branch and 3.6 master (Bjoern/Korrawit): - no news The next call is on 2012-06-29 1400 UTC.
