The conmon (container monitor) is low-level binary used by Podman to manage the container life-cycle and logging. We are working on new version of this binary called conmon-v3.

I would like to organize Fedora test day to test it before we later switch to it by default.

Goal of test day: Switch from default conmon-v2 to conmon-v3 (already packaged in Fedora) and test running podman with it.
Date: from 2026-10-05 to 2026-10-11
What to test:

I will ensure the right conmon-v3 version is in all active Fedora releases before that date.

I can write article similar to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2026-05-11_Podman_6.0 - we mainly need to include a step there to enable conmon-v3 as described in https://github.com/containers/conmon-v3#run-podman-with-conmon-v3 (the copr steps will be skipped for test day, since we will test fedora RPMs)

Hi @jkaluza ,
I have created the wiki page and test cases for the upcoming test day. Please review the Podman version, installation steps, and package NVRs:

wiki page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2026-10-05_Podman_Conmon-v3
CHECK

test cases:
https://testdays.fedoraproject.org/testday/29
I just copied from last test day

  • suggest what to add / remove ?

Promoting the Test Day:
We had low attendance during the last Podman test day (possibly because it was early in the Fedora phase, or for other reasons).

Any ideas on how to promote this upcoming test day? like podman upstream ?

We can write a post for the Fedora Community Blog and/or Fedora Magazine highlighting the new features

https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/join-us-for-podman-6-0-test-days-may-11-15-2026/

https://fedoramagazine.org/podman-test-days-try-the-new-backend-parallel-pulls/

^^ if yes - we should write both within this week.

I will also send an email to the Fedora test mailing list.

After chat with @jkaluza : The test day is postponed by one week to allow time for adjustments to a Podman PR.

wiki moved + time adjusted:

The fedoramagazine entry and dates look OK. I will edit few details in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2026-10-12_Podman_Conmon-v3, but nothing game changing.

Backlog Status
Needs Review
 Work items that have been created or updated but need review, refinement, or approval before they can be considered ready for sprint planning.

  
Backlog Status
Ready
 Work items that have been reviewed, refined, and are ready to be committed to a sprint. These items have clear requirements and can be worked on immediately when capacity is available.

  
chore
Work that needs to be done but doesn't add new functionality or fix bugs. Maintenance tasks that keep the system running smoothly and the codebase clean.

  
documentation
Work focused on creating, updating, or improving documentation for users, developers, or system administrators.

  
points
01
 A task that is simple, small, and has very little uncertainty. It should be easy enough for any team member to pick up and complete quickly, without a lot of discussion or research.

  
points
02
 This is a task that is slightly more complex or larger than a "1." It might involve two or three simple steps, but the outcome is still very clear and there's little uncertainty.

  
points
03
 Medium-sized task with some noticeable complexity. It might require a bit more thought or collaboration. The steps are well-defined, but it's not a trivial change.

  
points
05
 A significant piece of work. It has more complexity and a higher degree of uncertainty than smaller tasks. It might require some research, a design discussion, or collaboration across multiple teams.

  
points
08
 Complex task with a lot of uncertainty. It's often the largest size that a team will consider for a single sprint. It likely requires a detailed breakdown and multiple team members to complete.

  
points
13
 Any task that feels like it's a "13" or more is considered an Epic. These are too large and uncertain to be worked on in a single sprint and should be broken down.

Priority
Critical
 This is for work that is urgent and of critical importance and so and must be addressed immediately with a higher priority than all other work, even if not originally planned for the current sprint.

  
Priority
High
 This is for work that is critical and needs to be addressed in the next sprint. It's often for urgent bugs, important features, or a major piece of technical debt that is blocking other work.

  
Priority
Low
 This is for work that is good to do but not urgent. It's a candidate for being worked on when there's extra time or when it rises in importance. It can stay in the backlog for a longer period.

  
Priority
Medium
 This is for important work that should be done soon, but isn't as urgent as a high-priority item. It will likely be considered for the next 1-2 sprints.

  
Sprint Status
Blocked
 Work items that cannot progress due to external dependencies, blockers, or issues that need resolution.

  
Sprint Status
Done
 Work items that have been completed, reviewed, and integrated. No further work is needed within the current sprint.

  
Sprint Status
In Progress
 Work items currently being worked on by a team member. Active development, research, or implementation is happening.

  
Sprint Status
Review
 Work items that are complete but need review, testing, or approval before being marked as done.

  
Sprint Status
To Do
 Work items that are committed to the sprint but haven't been started yet. These items are ready to be picked up by team members.

  
Technical Debt
Work that addresses shortcuts, workarounds, or suboptimal implementations that were done previously to meet deadlines. These items improve code quality, maintainability, or performance without adding new features.

  
Work Item
Bug
 Issues where the system is not working as intended or designed. Bugs represent deviations from expected behavior.

  
Work Item
Epic
 Large initiatives that are broken down into multiple smaller work items (user stories, tasks, bugs). Epics represent significant features or projects that span multiple sprints.

  
Work Item
Spike
 Time-boxed research, investigation, or proof-of-concept work to reduce uncertainty or explore solutions. Spikes help inform future development decisions.

  
Work Item
Task
 Used to break down larger user stories into smaller, manageable implementation pieces. They focus on the specific technical steps needed to deliver the user story's value.

  
Work Item
User Story
 User-facing features or functionality that can be framed from a user perspective, describing what someone wants to accomplish and why.
