Hi Andres,

Where was this agreed and discussed? That's news to me that we won't do
a SRU for Precise. Even earlier this week, when Daviey told me we had
missed the deadline for 12.04.1, he was still saying that the gates of
SRU were always open.

Is the new dependencies the only blocker for a SRU? And how much of a
blocker is it really?

Thanks for the clarifications
