Would it be possible to automatically detect when the rawhide tree is
in shape for installation, and then spin an ISO? I bet it would mean
some broken ISO's in the beginning, but hopefully the automatic
problem detection would be improved over time.
with something like KVM (
kvm.sf.net) you could do fully automatic ISO
spinning, and then do a trial install automated into the virtual machine
(using kickstart) that then could "phone home" when finished.
It's a good QA thing, and it's a first step towards more frequent/more
reliable iso spins, but it's not a substitute for humans doing trial
installs/freezes :(
