Onboard in oneiric needs testing.

[Luke Yelavich]

Hi folks,
There has been some work recently done on onboard, which unfortunately did not make the final release. However, the Ubuntu release team was kind enough to allow a possible new upstream candidate with many bug fixes to be uploaded to the oneiric-proposed release pocket of Oneiric. This means that the onboard package can be tested, and if testing is satisfactory, and no important regressions or other bugs are found, then the new upstrea version of onboard will be released into oneiric-updates.

For this to happen, the package needs some testing from you, the users. Here is what you need to do to get the package for testing.
1. Make sure you are using oneiric. This package of onboard will not be made available for any other Ubuntu release.
2. Read these instructions carefully: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed
3. Install the version of onboard from oneoric-proposed, and test.
4. Once you have done some testing, plesae leave feedback here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872374

The more people that test, the better the test results will be, and the higher the likelyhood of the onboard update being available for the general public.

Thanks for your time and consideration.

Luke
