later than they were expecting. Due to a lack of testing of the HWE<br>
stack, and a few other compounded issues (like my being ill), I'm<br>
delaying the release until the 18th, prefering having it done right,<br>
rather than having it done quickly.<br>
<br>
With that said, here's the general plan:<br>
<br>
1) If you haven't already smoketested some dailies to make sure your<br>
flavour is working alright with the HWE stack, please do so now.<br>
<br>
2) If you have last minute fixes that affect the live session or the<br>
installer, get them in the queue now and bring my attention to<br>
them. Anything that doesn't fit those two categories will likely<br>
not make it into the point release (but will be fine as SRUs as<br>
usual after the release).<br>
<br>
3) I will be promoting the HWE stack to -updates and switching the<br>
ISO builds to exclude -proposed by the end of the week, and we<br>
can consider any images produced over the weeked as RCs for the<br>
point release.<br>
<br>
4) Testing in the first few days of next week should lead us to a<br>
set of images we're confident about releasing on Thursday.<br>
<br>
Remember that *all* flavours signed up to be LTS flavours for trusty,<br>
so do find some people to test, and remind your counterparts from<br>
other flavours that they're on the hook for giving us a pass/fail,<br>
and do be good citizens and help out where people are lacking in the<br>
right hardware or manpower to test a specific image.<br>
