Hello Ubuntu developers,

Three days out from the expected release of Oneirc Alpha 3, the
milestone freeze is now in effect.  This is a day earlier than usual due
the large amounts of package churn caused by the unexpected Debian sync.
Please take care that any packages that you upload to main between now
and the Alpha 3 release will help us in the goal of a high quality and
timely alpha, and hold any disruptive or unnecessary uploads until after
the alpha is out.  Again, this means the primary focus should be on
resolving these bugs:


https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+bugs?field.milestone%3Alist=39141&field.tag=-ftbfs

As always, there's also plenty of other work to be done in getting the
archive in a consistent state so that we don't have uninstallable
packages for the alpha-3 milestone:

Remember that this is a "soft" freeze, so you are each responsible for
making sure your uploads are appropriate - Launchpad will not be your
safety net.

Packages that are not seeded on the CDs (i.e., most packages in
universe, with the exception of Ubuntu Studio, Xubuntu, and Mythbuntu
packages) may be uploaded as usual.

Thanks all,
Michael Casadevall
pp. the Ubuntu Release Team
