This is a bureaucracy bug: I'm filing it to propose it for a Fedora 27 Beta freeze exception. GNOME 3.26.0 is built and an update submitted: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-d8c9ac15c3 . The question is whether it makes sense to pull it into Fedora 27 Beta or not. We slipped a week at the go/no-go yesterday (2017-09-14), so the next go/no-go is 2017-09-21. That gives us a bit of a window to test out 3.26.0 and include it. Personally I'm slightly inclined to go ahead with it; GNOME has a pretty good track record of not breaking horribly between the RC and final release stages, and the Beta requirements for GNOME are not *too* huge so we should be able to test and verify whether it meets the requirements quite quickly. I will test 3.26.0 out on my own F27 system and also try to run openQA tests with it over the next couple of days.
+1 from me
+1 from me if the GNOME team thinks it's ready and unlikely to cause additional slip (I'll take Matthias's +1 as indicating that.)
Discussed at blocker review meeting [1]: AcceptedFreezeException - The beta requirements for gnome aren't big and there aren't any regressions right now. [1] https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2017-09-18
The 3.26.0 update was just pushed to stable as an FE. Closing the ticket.
