=== Status: Raring Development Kernel  ===
  Highlights from this past week include rebasing Raring to the latest
  v3.8.5 upstream stable kernel, adding Highbank support, and renaming our
  omap arm flavor to generic to better reflect is new nature of a
  mutiplatform arm kernel.  We have also rebased our unstable-3.9
  branch to the latest upstream v3.9-rc5.
  Please be aware that Beta Release for Raring is fast approaching, ie
  this Thurs Apr 4.  Kernel Freeze is next week on Apr 11.  All patches
  submitted after Kernel Freeze must adhere to our SRU policy.
  Important upcoming dates:
   * Thurs Apr 04 - 13.04 Final Beta Release (~2 days)
   * Thurs Apr 11 - Kernel Freeze (~1 week)
