Meeting Agenda]]


=== ARM Status  ===
 T/master-next: LP1303657 ("Cannot boot trusty kernel on
qemu-system-arm") - we
 were missing the correct dtb (wasn't necessary in S) and qemu was
waiting for a
 console over jtag (HVC_DCC) that would never show up - waiting for a
 confirmation from the reporter before sending the patches.
