Feature added by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Feature #306903, revision 1 Title: Ship Xorg 7.5 / x-server 1.7 openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Xorg 7.5 / x-server 1.7 (due: mid august) By the time 11.2 arrives in mid november the x-server 1.6 will already be over six months old, and X.org 7.4 itself will be over a year old. The inclusion of X.org 7.5 and kernel 2.6.31 will keep 11.2 fresh and relevant throughout its nine month life, and prevent the perception of staleness among suse enthusiasts in 2010. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: The inclusion for X.org 7.5 will keep 11.2 fresh and relevant throughout its life time and prevent the perception of staleness among SUSE enthusiasts in 2010. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306903

As unimportant as it seems, that is a marketing aspect that should not be overlooked. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306635

Feature added by: Adrian Schröter (adrianSuSE) Feature #307506, revision 1 Title: Improve Factory check-in workflow Buildservice: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Projectmanager: Important Requested by: Stephan Kulow (coolo) Description: We have currently the problem that we do not want to do permanent checkins into Factory project to allow depending packages finish building. But on the other hand, we want to do the review at any point of time and push the new sources into the project at once. We had a discussion about this and this was the results: * Create a concept for requests states, reflecting the currently internal states happen during checkin. Reflecting legal and review states. (AI: Rudi) * Add a functionality to add comments to requests without changing the state. (AI: Klaas/Adrian create xml concept) * Offer a clean server side repository cloning functionality (AI: mls) * osc shall call precheckin.sh on checkin and build (AI: adrian) * internal check_if_valid_source_dir checks must become public (AI: adrian/ro/lrupp) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307506

I.e. they have uncommited (not submitted to Factory) projects.diffs in their file list. This could e.g. be part of the "My Projects" page.
