[ovirt-users] [QE][ACTION REQUIRED] oVirt 3.5.0 status - Go / No Go

[Sandro Bonazzola]

Hi,
We are supposed to start composing oVirt 3.5.0 GA (or RC3, depending on this morning Go / No go Meeting decisions)
I think we can use this email for discussing / voting 3.5.0 GA release.
Looking at bugzilla status, I vote no go. I also think we should move the build to Wed allowing maintainers to fix pending blockers.

Maintainers:
- Please be sure that 3.5 snapshot satisfy release criteria[9]
- Please be sure that no pending patches are going to block the release
- If any patch must block the GA release please raise the issue as soon as possible.
- If any packages need a rebase please raise the issue as soon as possible.
- Be aware that packages that doesn't need a rebase must be re-built with final release versioning from the RC2 tag.

The bug tracker [1] shows the following proposed blockers to be reviewed:

Bug ID	Whiteboard	Status		Summary

The following bugs are keyworded as Regression and not marked as blockers[10]
