Hi @lruzicka , thanks for this. When do you want this information by? Prior to the start of F34 testing?

Hello @aday ,
we need this information ASAP for Nautilus, as this is subject of a punted bug and we need to decide based on that info.

With the rest, it depends how urgent you, the workstation work group, think the topic is. In my point of view, it would be nice to have that info before the Final RC for Fedora 33 so that we could apply the criteria on this release already.

However, if you do not need this criteria to be applied in this release, then prior to the start of F34 should suffice.

Adding @chrismurphy to this ticket, as he was the one who asked me to open it.

This is the release criterion and list:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_33_Final_Release_Criteria#Default_application_functionality

We discussed this at today's WG meeting.

• sushi is hidden functionality that is probably only used by users who happen to know about it. Humans always make the final decision as to whether an issue is severe enough to block release regardless of the guiding criteria, so in this case, we suggest not blocking on sushi.
• As far as compiling a list of basic functionality for a wide variety of applications: we decline to do so. It's difficult to guess how we would handle particular features not working in the future. We suggest that the blocker review committee decide on a case-by-case basis whether particular functionality is serious enough to block the release, and consult with the WG when in doubt.

Which applications do you want us to apply the "basic functionality" criterion on when testing them?

The basic functionality criterion applies to all preinstalled applications in Workstation. They all have to survive a basic functionality test.

That doesn't mean that every single feature has to work properly. That guideline is intentionally hazy to allow the blocker review committee a wide degree of judgment.

Yeah, I think it's fine to decide whether things are 'basic functionality' on a case-by-case basis. Personally I didn't expect a comprehensive set-in-stone definition of "basic functionality" for all applications or anything in this case, I think we simply wanted Workstation WG's opinion on this specific case.
