 GNOME 3.9.91 builds are now done and made it in right before the Alpha
 freeze last night. Bodhi wasn't enabled yet so they made it directly
 to the base F20 repo, and are available in today's F20 compose.

 CC-ing Tim Flink: unfortunately, latest TC3 images were spinned based on
 last night's compose and GNOME 3.9.91 is only in today's. Could you guys
 request a new TC please?

We're on TC4

The default Fedora desktop is GNOME. Most of the Red Hat desktop
employees work on GNOME It would be kinda odd to do anything else.

Building in a side tag and filing a megaupdate in Bodhi is what we 
routinely do for KDE, why is that not good enough for GNOME?

What about Rawhide? I though auto-inherit was turned off.

I usually try to align with GNOME when creating schedule but it's hard to
get completely in sync. For F20, it was pretty much constrained by FESCo 
request to release in November and we are moving target sometimes. What's
important is that final GNOME lands in time for final Fedora as Kalev
pointed out. Even after freeze, we try to get latest GNOME bits into
the compose, so it gets tested and QA is usually ok with that (doing 
smoke compose and getting it a bit spin).

Btw. important releases are always part of [1].

GNOME 3.9.91 megaupdate

2013-09-02 Thread Kalev Lember
Hi all,

It's that time of the year again -- F20 is going into the Alpha freeze
tomorrow and new builds will have to go through Bodhi for verification.

The GNOME 3.9.91 release is coming as well, with a bit unfortunate
timing wrt. Fedora freezes. In any case, we'll handle the GNOME 3.9.91
builds together and file them as a single megaupdate in Bodhi.

There's a separate koji build target for the 3.9.91 builds and the
magical invocation is 'fedpkg build --target f20-gnome'. We're also
going to use the same spreadsheet system as previously, so if you want
builds to be included in the megaupdate, 1) use the f20-gnome build
target, and 2) list the builds in

Depends on when the planning has been done but given that the gnome
schedule is rather predicable yes.

Maybe. I mean this comes up every couple of releases. Either we are
freezing too late or we are freezing too early. We are close to the GNOME
schedule but unless we start saying, our releases are tied lock in step
with GNOME and let them dictate things, I think that is as good as we get.

We might have been able to do slightly better, because GNOME schedules
are published in advance and set pretty much in stone. In the end, it's
hard to plan for this though because we tend to slip often with Fedora
(there has already been a two-week adjustment to F20 schedule:
https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1095#comment:12)

What really matters is to have the final releases of Fedora and GNOME
roughly in sync (by the way, thanks for everyone involved for making the
shorter F20 schedule work!). It's not much of a problem if there are
small scheduling issues with Alpha / Beta releases, as long as the final
Fedora release doesn't come too late after a GNOME release.

I think what's happening now is perfectly fine: GNOME release arrives a
day or two after Fedora freeze, we package everything up quickly and if
it's good, include it as a freeze exception. If it's problematic, leave
it for after freeze.

There's some small annoyances involved, but slipping the whole Fedora
just to wait for GNOME 3.9.91 wouldn't be a worse solution, in my opinion.
