Do you have any particular things in mind that need more thorough
testing
before 2.6.2 is released?
It was a general question. While it's nice that people run "make test"
and
sometimes "make its", it would be even nicer if we got regular feedback from actual test environments. If we got people to publish any metrics they gather (performance or otherwise), we could even track the evolution of the software in a real world setting, I know I'm not asking for much ;)
Maybe maintain an OVL for each release, where "OVL" means "Operating
System
Verification List" ;-) (The list of Operating System Releases where compilation and selftest succeeded)
I don't think that's too helpful, since getting people to run OpenLDAP's own self-tests has never been a problem in my view. It's running the software with a real-world configuration that never seems to get reported.
I know Shawn runs a few replication scenarios regularly. It would be nice to know if we could get others to consider running the release candidates in their own test or staging systems and what were the perceived issues to getting that going.
I was thinking like "Qubes OS HCL" (Hardware Compatibility List) that is viewable on their website. Of course if your statement is "our software runs everywhere without any problems", then you don't need it ;-)
