[Bug 263555] Re: [intrepid] 2.6.27 e1000e driver places Intel ICH8 and ICH9 gigE chipsets at risk

[Thomas McKay]

I for one second the motion to remove the alpha images until they have
been prepared so that there is no risk of hardware damage. I would be
seriously concerned about the negative effects of ignoring this issue.

There is a liability on Canonical for the distribution of software which
causes permanent and irreparable damage. The problem has been
identified, and by not shielding their customers from this issue is
nothing less than WILLFUL NEGLECT.

REMOVE THE IMAGES NOW, and re-issue them when the driver has been
blacklisted.
