During this week, we only managed to get 4 snapshots (0324, 0328, 0329, and 0330) out of the door. Seems QA is slowing us down too much, so I decided to give up on it. To make Tumbleweed more plannable for upgraders, the new process will foresee a fixed time when a snapshot will go out – daily at 5 pm UTC. We will just ship out whatever we have built by that time. This is a minimal tradeoff between stability and plannability – after all, we all trust our developers and maintainers and we know that they test things before sending them your way. So no more need to slow down using QA!
As Product Owner of the team that develops openQA we of course fully support that move! With Tumbleweed as our main user not doing all those tests anymore we free up a lot of ressources which we can now finally apply to mine cryptocurrencies. Also with less users I expect less bug reports so we can focus on ... I don't know yet, we will find something to do ;) Have fun, Oliver for the openQA community mismanagement team
