Sometimes Rawhide is ''broken''. Brokenness typically comes in one of these types:
 
* Installer
** Installer images missing
** Installer doesn't work
* Repo
** Metadata is missing
** Package/file conflicts
** Dependency problems
* Functional
** Major bugs with packages in the "Critical Path" (see [[Critical Path Packages Proposal]])
 
When Rawhide is broken it's much harder for people to become Rawhide testers, harder for developers to get fixes into the hands of testers, and other such badness.
