Buildfeed.net 'Flight level: high"


Recommended Posts

Hey everybody,

So, for the past couple of weeks, I've been keeping an eye on buildfeed.net. However, today, 2 builds of Windows 10 showed up with a label below them saying "Flight level: high". Anyone with an idea what that means?

What it does mean is that these builds were detected when setting RiskLevel (shown in SystemSettings as how fast you'd like to get preview builds) to high.

So far the only build we got which was detected in low RiskLevel was 9841.0 and 9860.0.fbl_release, in both Professional & Enterprise SKUs.

Basically, the internal update distribution system has different "Flight Levels" or priorities. There's Low, Medium and High.

 

High is essentially what would probably be termed "nightlies" in a FOSS project. Most builds get to this priority, and most labs will build most days.

 

Low is essentially public or soon-to-be-public builds. Only builds I've seen in there are 9841.fbl_release and 9860.fbl_release.

 

Medium was somewhere between the two, although for reasons unknown to myself, over the last week or so it's been offering identical builds to High.

 

 

I've now added RSS feeds on BuildFeed for the different flight levels as well, if you click the RSS icon in the top right.
