Blocker Bug Review Meeting :: Monday @ 14:00 UTC

	How do you add a bug to the blocker list?  The following two bugzilla
bugs are basically duplicates of each other and are a "failure to boot"
bug wrt mkinitrd:

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466607
	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466071

	If I understand the blocker criterion here: 

	https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/ReleaseCriteria

Quote:

==
A note on MUST and SHOULD 
Items described with the word "MUST" are required to work for all
releases, including Test releases.
Additionally, the items described with the word "SHOULD" are required
for all final releases.
==

==
Boot 
      * The installed system MUST boot and start up properly.
==

	Those bugs are "failure to boot" which fails to meet the condition that
the install "MUST" boot.  There are several scenarios involving SCSI
drivers (and maybe one PATA) in both real and VMware environments which
fail this.

	The blocker document says: "Refer to the RoadMap for links to tracker
bugs and contact the ReleaseEngineering team if you wish to nominate any
bugs as blockers for a release that meet the following criteria."

	It doesn't say how to contact the ReleaseEngineering team or give an
E-Mail address and I would like to nominate these bugs.

	Mike
