The time has come. Thanks to @hanthor not only do we get GNOME 49, we get GNOME 50 too! Achillobator can be fast!

Call for Testing

We've got fancy new testing branches so feel free to help out. I know it's tempting to go right to 50 but if you could give 49 a shakedown on your way there it would really help. We're also wondering when the best time to land 50 would be. Do we wait until Fall to kinda get the -1 feel GTS had or do we pick a happy spot in the summer? Leave your feedback below.

Help fix the matrix of madness

Find your image with a sudo bootc status and you basically adding a -testing to your image name. So instead of bluefin:lts it's bluefin:lts-testing, and so on.

We need one more legend.

Huge thanks to @hanthor on this one, and if you're as annoyed as I am with those manual branch names you can help just add a toggle to the rebase helper so that we can just have this be a nice testing switch! Once we get that going and add a testing branch to bluefin:stable we'll have a nice easy way for people to opt in and out of testing. Good luck, have fun!
