Test Days
Last week saw three main track Test Days making up Graphics Test Week: ATI / Radeon Test Day[1], NVIDIA / Nouveau Test Day[2], and Intel graphics Test Day[3]. Each event was very busy and turned up a range of bugs which will now be worked on by the driver developers. Many thanks to everyone who helped test! If you missed the Test Days but would like to test your graphics adapter for Fedora 12, you can still visit the Test Day pages, download the test live image, and report your results.
Last week's Fit and Finish[4] Test Day was on sharing[5]. As usual, the Fit and Finish group identified several issues which could be improved to present a better sharing experience, and filed several bugs.
Next week will see two main track Test Days. The first is on audio, including PulseAudio[6]. This is always a hot-button topic for Fedora releases, and PulseAudio has seen some significant changes and improvements from Fedora 11. If you want to make sure audio will work perfectly with your hardware in Fedora 12, please come along and help with the testing!
No Fit and Finish track Test Day is planned for next week.
If you would like to propose a main track Test Day for the Fedora 12 cycle, please contact the QA team via email or IRC, or file a ticket in QA Trac[7].

Weekly meetings
No meetings were held this week for either the QA or BugZappers groups, due to the absence of important group members and the North American public holiday on Monday 2009-09-07.
The next QA weekly meeting will be held on 2009-09-14 at 1600 UTC in #fedora-meeting, and the next Bugzappers weekly meeting on 2009-09-15 at 1500 UTC in #fedora-meeting.
Test Day live spin
Bruno Wolff announced[1] he had got the spin configuration for the Test Day live image added to the official Fedora spins git repository. replied[2] to say he had modified the live image creation guide[3] to reflect this change (which makes generating live images configured for Test Days much easier).
