Main frozen for Alpha 2

Hi everyone, We're two days before the scheduled release of Intrepid Alpha 2, so the milestone "freeze" is now in effect. Please take care that any packages that you upload to main between now and the Alpha 2 release will help us in the goal of a high quality and timely alpha, and hold any disruptive or unnecessary uploads until after the alpha is out. Again, this means the primary focus should be on resolving these bugs: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+milestone/intrepid-alpha-2 The number of bugs targeted to this early milestone is of course quite small, but there's plenty of other work to be done in getting the archive in a consistent state so that we don't have uninstallable packages for the alpha-2 milestone: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive#Consistency Remember that this is a "soft" freeze, so you are each responsible for making sure your uploads are appropriate - Launchpad will not be your safety net. Packages that are not seeded on the CDs (i.e., most packages in universe, with the exception of UbuntuStudio[1] and Xubuntu[2] packages) may be uploaded as usual. Cheers, -- Steve Langasek On behalf of the Ubuntu release team [1] https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntustudio.intrepid [2] https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/xubuntu.intrepid

Hug Day - July 10, 2008

Hello Ubuntu Lovers! For our next Ubuntu Bug Day, on July 10th 2008, we will be focusing on Kernel audio bugs! There are currently 129 bugs reported against the kernel source packages packages, but are assigned to the Ubuntu Audio team. The Hug Day will focus on triaging and confirming the bugs on the list, as well as requesting the bug reporter to test to see if the bug still occurs on Intrepid Alpha 2, which is scheduled to be released on the same day. The list of targeted bugs can be found at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20080710 Our goal is to deal with all of the bugs on that list. So on Thursday, 10 July 2008, in all timezones, we'll be meeting in #ubuntu-bugs on irc.freenode.net for another Ubuntu Hug Day. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay While you are welcome to apply to join the Ubuntu Bug Control team anytime, Hug Day is a great day to join! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugControl If you're interested in helping to make the next release of Ubuntu even better - please stop by. And feel free to ask bdmurray, pedro, ogasawara and the rest of the team for ways to help out. We hope to see you there and your name on the list of bug triagers! Sincerely, Nick Ellery On behalf of the Ubuntu BugSquad
