[Test-Announce]Fedora 42 is in final freeze

Hi all,

Today, 2025-04-01, is an important day on the Fedora Linux 42 schedule
[1], with significant cut-offs. Today we have the Final Freeze [2]
which starts at 14:00 UTC. This means that only packages which fix
accepted blocker or freeze exception bugs [3][4][5] will be marked as
'stable' and included in the Final composes. Other builds will remain
in updates-testing until the Final release is approved, at which point
the Final freeze is lifted and packages can move to the 'updates'
repository. Pending updates will be pushed before final release as
zero day updates.

Regards,
Samyak Jain

Hey Folks,

As many of you may know, KDE is becoming a blocking deliverable in this release we are hosting
The KDE test week[0].
You can still submit the results here[1]. KDE is very important for
our community members
and testing this way ahead of time helps us find bugs and eliminate them!!

Thanks for testing!

[Test-Announce]2025-03-31 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 42 Blocker Review Meeting

# F42 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2025-03-31
# Time: 16:00 UTC
# Location:
https://matrix.to/#/#blocker-review:fedoraproject.org?web-instance[element.io]=chat.fedoraproject.org

Hi folks! It's time for a Fedora 42 blocker review meeting! We have 4
proposed blockers and 2 proposed freeze exceptions for Final.

Here is a handy link which should show you the meeting time
in your local time:
https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Fedora+41+Blocker+review+meeting&iso=20250331T16&p1=1440&ah=2

The meeting will be on Matrix. Click the link above to join in a web
client - you can authenticate with your FAS account - or use a
dedicated client of your choosing.

If you have time this weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or
accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found
here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ .

Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If
you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links
labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions.
Those links take you to tickets where you can vote.
https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how
exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the
meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs
where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS
MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!**

We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the
Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not
fixed. Information on the release criteria for F42 can be found on the
wiki [0].

For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process,
check out these links:
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process

And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting
works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out
the SOP on the wiki:
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting

Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!
