I have only changed the Alpha release date and intentionally have
left
the Beta and Final the same. This has been communicated to Marketing,
unfortunately (my fault) not to rel-eng nor QA. The reason was mainly
not to affect F25.
Is it acceptable to have Beta & Final release dates for F24 as stated
on [1], or we really need to slip these dates ?
From QA's side we can at least
try to make the unamended date, as I
said.
