(@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:08:48) * AGREED: 2444824 - punt (delay decision) on blocker status, AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is accepted as a freeze exception issue as the GNOME remote desktop case is definitely heavily broken and we want that fixed for release if possible. Blocker status decision is delayed as the blocker case (RDP install) seems to fail much less often, but we want to investigate more thoroughly before deciding (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:29:16) * TOPIC: (2444046) Incorrect KDE application launcher icon when user configures dark mode during initial setup (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:29:26) * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2444046 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:29:26) * LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/2076 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:29:26) * INFO: Proposed Blocker, plasma-setup, NEW (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:29:26) * INFO: Ticket vote: FinalBlocker (+4,0,-2) (+derekenz, +asciiwolf, +nielsenb, +psklenar, -kparal, -adamwill) (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:29:26) * AGREED: 2444046 - RejectedBlocker (Final) AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - there are differing opinions on this, but we noted that the existing criteria were written for 'artwork' that changes per-release and were not meant to cover permanent branding issues. there's some support for adding branding criteria, but the narrow consensus was this is probably a minor enough issue that it shouldn't constitute a blocker even if we do write branding criteria. we're open to re-considering this if a broad swell of folks who weren't present at the meeting are concerned. It's accepted as an FE as a visible issue in a blocking desktop that can't be resolved with an update (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:01:42) * INFO: Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+4,0,-0) (+asciiwolf, +nielsenb, +derekenz, +adamwill) (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:02:54) * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2391723 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:02:54) * TOPIC: (2391723) `shim-ia32` missing since `shim-15.8-4` (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:02:54) * LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/2075 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:02:54) * INFO: Proposed Blocker, shim, NEW (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:02:54) * INFO: Ticket vote: FinalBlocker (+2,0,-0) (+nielsenb, +derekenz) (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:02:54) * AGREED: 2391723 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - this is accepted as a violation of "All release-blocking images must boot in their supported configurations" in the case of x86_64 systems with 32-bit UEFI firmwares. our subjective decision was that this is a significant enough class of systems to constitute a release blocking bug. Note we accept this only in the context of 'making an effort to support such systems', as the fix is relatively straightforward. We don't necessarily intend to establish a precedent that any kind of bug in this unusual path becomes a blocker; one that required more work by the developers may not reach the bar.

(@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:25:27) * TOPIC: Accepted Final blocker review (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:25:56) * INFO: remember, we are just checking in on status here, not re-voting unless it's necessary for some reason (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:26:07) * INFO: three of the blockers are network installer image sizes. I did a quick investigation and didn't find any low-hanging fruit to target - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2431863#c9 .
