Looks reasonable to me. We never really did figure out what to do about the string freezes though.

AGREED: Punt on Proposed Fedora 29 schedule for a week to discuss moving "infra freeze" one day after bodhi activation (+7, 0, 0)

I'm in agreement with this schedule plus the one-day delay on Infra Freeze.

Was that actually discussed anywhere? Should we add "infra freeze" into the schedule itself? If we're punting on approving a schedule for it, I think we should.

In today's FESCo meeting, we agreed to accept the F29 schedule as-is. ((+1:5,+0:0,-1:1)

To be clear, my -1 was simply because I wanted the infra freeze listed. I'm fine with the schedule otherwise. :)

Reopening to propose an additional item for the schedule.

In today's Blocker Bugs meeting, item https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1567875 came up regarding AppStream data. I think it would make sense for this to be part of the official schedule and treated as a FESCo-blocker. So I propose that we select the 2018-10-10 (one day after Final Freeze) as the date we update the AppStream data in preparation for GA release.

EDIT: Corrected the date to 2018-10-10; it originally read 2018-10-11.

I'm guessing there's no string translation of this data? If not, then +1. If there is, then I'm confused.

I think that translation comes from the AppStream Upstream. @kalev is that correct?

No need for translations, it's all already translated at this point. Just need to extract the appdata files (that include translations) from all the rpms in Fedora and compose them into a big xml file that gnome-software can then consume.

@sgallagh @kalev in what format will the appstream data be prepared? I think we should be explicitly clear about what the expectations are.
