#260 F27 Talking Points
Closed: Complete 6 years ago Opened 6 years ago by mailga.

Hi guys,
unfortunately (I admit I was too busy in August) we miss the deadline for creating the Talking Points [1] and now we are in a hurry because the beta readiness meeting is very close.

Of course we don't have any blocking issue for the releases, but Talking Points are useful also for the Release Announcement.

If there's anyone that could ping WGs in order to have fresh news to add to the TP page, please ask them for an help.

ATM I only created the page[2], tomorrow I'll change the content (by leaning on the changeset [3], until WGs people appear).

Would it make sense to work with the Docs team to both enhance the release notes and to get information at one time?

@bex I'd like to talk with you about this. I need more infos on how to do.

@mattdm Talking Points are quite finished, few notes:

  • afaik this is a release with no major upgrade. The real news is that the server edition will be shipped in a different date.
  • I tried to reach mbriza via PM for the updates about the fedora media writer. I'm waiting for a reply and as soon as I have it, will update the page.
  • I had some difficult to understand why we should explain changes for devs and changes affecting security. In my mind Talking Points are for Ambys getting usually in touch with end-users. Adavanced users (like devs and security people) knows packages better than Ambys. If @x3mboy has a different view I'm happy to adapt.
  • I didn't reach Arm people, I'm doing just now via ML.
  • I tried to reach LXQt people via IRC; no replies so far
  • I didn't reach LXDE and SoaS people; any advice is welcome.

Feel free to edit the page for any update.

Thanks.

Gabri

Lupinix replies there are not differences between F26 and F27 beta.
Updated Talkink Points.

Thanks

Hello,

FYI just update also the mediawriter section (no news with the new version).

Thanks.

Gabri

With all the CVEs patched in recent kernels, from a security angle I'd mention the kernel shipping with 27B and that it has at the latest the patch for Blueborne and recent bugs prior. This is a point to help ensure end-users, especially newbies that there is no windows-ish download all these new drivers and such for BT and such.

For the developers, section maybe a link to the atomic sig changeset/updates regarding containerizing

A little more meat on the Arbitrary branching too would be a good idea.

Might be easier to read the modularity bits if it was a nested list of parts of the modular server / H &P etc.

Slight readability change for Editions > Server s/more simple
\/ much easier/simplier.

I'd start by looking at the Release Notes issues here: https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/release-notes/issues and at any merged text that is here: https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/release-notes/blob/f27/f/en-US -- I've also built the latest RN here: https://docs.stg.fedoraproject.org/beta/release-notes/index.html

lastly, your help is welcome and appreciated on closing out the release notes issues with updates :).
