This has been a long time coming, but AutoQA is no longer scheduling jobs and Taskotron is now running all of the automated checks on packages/updates.
The changeover should be transparent to most people - the same checks are being run in pretty much the same situations. Until Bodhi 2.0 is deployed, we're planning to continue providing feedback on updates in the form of bodhi comments.
While Taskotron is a huge step forwards in terms of having a capable and maintainable automation system for Fedora, it isn't perfect on the UX front. That being said, there has never been much traffic to the AutoQA instance and that's why we haven't been focusing as much on the frontend.
This changeover is just the beginning - we're still hard at work to add features to Taskotron. The first major feature to be added is disposable test clients [1] which will pave the way for folks to submit tasks to be run in Taskotron, among other oft requested features.
Huge props to the folks who have helped make this happen - the usual suspects from Fedora QA ( Kamil Páral, Josef Skládanka, Martin Krizek, Lukáš Brabec, Jan Sedlák, Petr Schindler, John Dulaney, Mike Ruckman), Ralph Bean (patches to ResultsDB), Kevin Fenzi and Stephen Smoogen (lots of help with and patience during deployment) and many, many other folks who have contributed ideas, bug reports and/or moral support.
If you're interested in learning more about Taskotron or helping us with dev tasks, I've included some reference links at the end of this email.
As always, please come find us (on the qadevel@ list or in #fedora-qa) if you have any questions or concerns.
