Thanks for the detailled testing plan. This seems quite appropriate to
me in general, I just have some further questions:

So quantal ships the argonaut series, raring the bobtail series. To
which Ubuntu releases does this MRE apply to? Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ships
0.41 -- is that also an upstream supported release, or do you propose
to update precise to 0.48? (That would then not be a microrelease any
more).

This seems to indicate that you don't plan on updating 12.04 LTS.
That's fine, I'd just like some confirmation as Ubuntu 12.04 seems to
be a much more popular server target than quantal or even raring at
this moment?
Assuming that you really only want to update to the new upstream
microreleases, +1 from me for a provisional MRE (i. e. doing a test
run with an SRU to a new upstream microrelease).
Thanks,
Martin
