In the Fedora 39 cycle, we've seen a big surge of FTI (fails to install) bugs being proposed as freeze exceptions, and this was a time-consuming activity for anyone involved in this process. I'd like to improve this process in the future, with the goal of dealing with them more efficiently (spending less time on it). I already started a discussion here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/MWRG3YLVU356HABCOJBMAEHVEYKNW75N/
It seems that granting automatic freeze exceptions in certain cases is a viable approach that people would agree with it. I'm filing this ticket to make sure we don't lose track of this goal and make sure we finish it.
I'll take this task, propose policy changes, and make sure the ball keeps rolling.
ping @kparal , how's that ball rolling?
Standing still, unfortunately. I still plan to do it. If somebody wants to take this to speed it up, shout.
