I concur and did this myself a few weeks ago, I found it slightly annoying. Hmm, whom should this be assigned to? release team and docs team after a decision? I've changed the specs in SVN for the autobuilds, so next week's x86 build should reflect this change. CC'ing docs team to let them know Uhhh . . . what about bug 189793? I thought we were shipping i686 as the minimum; that i486 didn't work anymore. Also, until releng sits down to have a nice long chat with the GDP about how we're going to go about entirely rewriting all our handbooks (when we're all ready for the autobuilds to become the canonical install method), we can't document *anything* about the weekly builds. Bug 189793 was a fluke. The minimal should support i486 just fine, normally. As for the docs changes, it's probably a good idea to mention the autobuilds in the "live" docs in the section on getting a stage tarball. This has been done in the autobuilds for a long time now. Marking as a blocker, since the GDP still needs to keep track of renames for the pending handbook updates. |
