We've had around 80 upgrades to recipes on the list after the freeze and basically the maintainers like Ross and myself are damned if we do and damned if we don't. I usually try and ignore them at this point in a release. This then upsets people as they don't get feedback and makes my life horrible when I eventually try and round them up. Instead I've tried pulling them into master-next. So far so good but I thought I'd better see how much of a mess the branch is in. Conclusion is at least 3 different failures, some of which I can't even easily figure out the patch causing it. So I now get to spend my time trying to figure out which patch broke what so I can report back on it and make the branch build again by dropping the broken patches. This means I'm trying to do full on day to day development as usual as well as trying to sort release issues like the imminent fedora28 issue I should be paying attention to instead. So, a question, what do people want me to do? Cheers, Richard
