feature change and do not qualify as SRU, will send my preliminary
review out soon

incorrect GPIO settings
* ON GOING: B608266 fix submitted and accepted - still waiting for

=== Blueprint: kernel-maverick-bug-handling ===
Nothing to report... yet
much coming soonish
=== Blueprint: kernel-maverick-bios-test-automation ===
no change (been on vacation)
=== Status: Maverick ===
Some armel udebs were accidentally removed from the archive over the
weekend. As a result, it was easiest to just upload a 2.6.35-19.28
kernel to re-generate the missing udebs. There is no real change in
code. Beta Freeze is in effect as the Maverick Beta release is this
Thurs Sept 2nd. That means no kernel uploads without the approval of
the release team until after the Beta release. Also, keep in mind that
Kernel Freeze is Thurs Sept 16th, ie ~2weeks away. Remember after
Kernel Freeze, we transition to our SRU policy in order to apply
patches. We are above our Beta burn down chart's trend line. I'll be
re-targetting beta work items to the final release milestone tomorrow.
Looking ahead towards our final release, we need to start closing out
all remaining open work items to ensure we stay below the overall burn
down chart.

Lucid 2.6.32-24.42 has moved to updates just today. Uploaded
2.6.32-25.43 which contains the accumulated upstream stable releases
until 2.6.32.21 but currently excludes the drm portions. We are in the
process to collect those drm patches since the end of 2.6.33.y that look
good for stable backports. Rebased uploads for Lucid-ec2 and
Lucid-mvl-dove will follow shortly.

=== Incoming Bugs: Bug day report ===
Next week's bug day will be focused on bugs in the Triaged state. We
will work through getting them tagged with the appropriate subsystem and
make sure that the ones that need to be looked at more closely are
tagged appropriately. We will continue to have the Team Bug Day to
address the Top 50 list as half days on Friday and Monday. Reviewers,
please take a look at your needs-review lists and help us keep the
process moving. Please also take ownership of your bugs as you work them
so we can get them fixed or otherwise off the list. There are several
subsystems owned by all that need to be reviewed for inclusion in our
top 50 list.
=== Triage Status ===
I have not taken the time this week to work with the kernel bug
triagers, but I hope to do so this coming week. I've been, and will
need to continue, working on work items so that they are being closed
out. There is much work being done, but some of them have required more
than I was prepared for. The Triage Sumit will be on the 11th. I'm
sending out e-mail on it today.
=== Open Discussion or Questions ===
None.
