This issue tracks the release note for the following Fedora Change:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/CloudProviderImageUpdates
If you own this change, please add additional information here that we should communicate to Fedora users. Specifically, please consider:
Your notes to us do not need to be formally written. We will edit them and add details as needed. This is a way for you to ensure that we know what is critical about your change.
If you want to write this release note, then:
Once you're done with the above, make sure to either commit the relnote to an appropriate section of the Release Notes book, or, if you're not familiar with Git, AsciiDoc, or whatever else, just add it to this issue as a comment and let pbokoc[1] know that you're done with this one and you'd like the note included. Be sure to do this at least one day before the final release (October 29 according to the current schedule). Also make sure to do this even for relnotes that haven't been checked by the change owner.
[0] You can do that by asking the change owner listed on the wiki page; alternatively you can infer it by checking the tracker bug (linked in Wiki) in Bugzilla and looking at its status; see bug comments for details. Ask someone on the mailing list or on IRC if you're not sure. [1] In #fedora-docs on FreeNode (UTC+1 timezone, online mostly during the day on weekdays), or pbokoc @redhat.com if you can't get a hold of me on IRC.
Not sure if this ended up making it into F29 or not; see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1619451#c7
If it did, the release note should go into sysadmin/Distribution.adoc and say:
== Cloud Provider Image Updates In previous releases of Fedora, cloud images were not updated after the initial release of the most current Fedora version. Therefore, any updates package updates were not available to those using cloud images, resulting in suboptimal user experience (requiring potentially very time consuming updates) as well as potential security issues if systems provisioned using these images were never updated. Starting with Fedora 29, the cloud images will be rebuilt on a monthly basis, ensuring a more secure out of the box experience using Fedora Cloud images and shorter provisioning times due to fewer updates being necessary.
It did not make it into F29. It's now targeted for F31.
Metadata Update from @pbokoc: - Issue assigned to pbokoc
Looks like it didn't make it to F31 either, based on the current state of the wiki page and BZ tracker.
Metadata Update from @pbokoc: - Assignee reset
And now it's deferred to F33! :)
Deferred again: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1619451#c19
This won't be done for F33. The fedora-cloud SIG is still figuring out how we want to do this change. Let's close it until we get our act together with a master plan.
Given this info I'll close the issue as well - I'm sure when the change is actually ready it will appear on the wiki/BZ again so we'll just open another one.
Metadata Update from @pbokoc: - Issue status updated to: Closed (was: Open)
