'Twas brillig, and Remco Rijnders at 25/03/12 13:29 did gyre and gimble:

+
+This isn't strictly true. e.g. there are some tracker bugs that are
+themselves release blockers and those tracker bugs then have bugs that
+block them. I've been busy fixing and closing a few bug reports that
+related to the systemd tracker for example:
+https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2120
+
+> That no release blockers have been fixed yet is a bit of a shame, but

+> bugs we have open we've seen promising progress in the past few days.
+
+As per above, saying "none closed since Friday" or "no release blockers
+have been fixed yet" is actually not quite true. Sadly, of course, this
+means that when you expand out the bugs you probably now have a lot more
+real release blocking bugs than you previously thought! :D
