Requesting an Exception
Requesting an Exception
If believe there is a good reason for you to break the Beta freeze, submit a request for approval to do so by filing a Release Engineering Ticket. Please include the following information:
- A description of what you want to change
- Rationale for why the change is important enough to be allowed in after the freeze
- The koji build nvr (name-version-release)
- Impact of not accepting the change at this point of the schedule
- Information on what testing you've already done on the development to help reduce the risk
Exception Evaluation
The Release Engineering team will evaluate your request and provide feedback.
- Approval comes in the form of +1's (meaning Yes or I approve).
- Two +1's (without any negative feedback or -1's) are necessary to build. If there is negative feedback, conversation will ensue and a new vote will be taken.
If your request is denied, your package will not appear in Rawhide until the freeze ends. If you disagree with Release Engineering's decision you may enter an appeal with FESCo. To start the appeals process with FESCo create a ticket with FESCo.
