+<PRE>philippe makowski a &#233;crit :
+&gt;<i> 2011/7/8 nicolas vigier&lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">boklm at mars-attacks.org</A>&gt;:
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I think the goal is not to do full regression tests, as we don't have
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> time for this. But do minimal testing, in 1 or 2 minutes, to check that
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> basic functionality is still working, to check that the update didn't
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> break everything. For LibreOffice that could be opening a test document.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Most applications are easy to test. But some require knowledge of the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> software, or some configuration files, to test, so we could keep a list
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> of test commands or things to do and config files.
+</I>&gt;<i> make sense
+</I>
+I agree
+with a list of packages needing special consideration
+
+&gt;<i> Fedora have interesting rules about update/testing updates
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Once pushed to testing, people are able to +1/-1 the updates &quot;karma&quot;,
+</I>&gt;<i> based on whether or not it seems to be functional for them. If your
+</I>&gt;<i> update reaches a karma of 3, it will automatically be pushed to
+</I>&gt;<i> stable. Likewise, if it reaches -3, it will be automatically unpushed.
+</I>&gt;<i> If your update does not receive enough feedback to automatically push
+</I>&gt;<i> it to stable, you will have to submit it as a final update yourself.
+</I>&gt;<i> This can easily be done with the command-line tool, or with the web
+</I>&gt;<i> interface
+</I>
+I like that approach, in general.
+Although if it doesn't work for 1 user, but does for 4 others, it could end up
+being pushed despite still having a bug.
+(Likely if the bug depends on other apps installed, affecting only a subset of
+users.)
+
+&gt;<i> they also have &quot;proven tester&quot;
