Precise Beta Freeze Later Today

[Jonathan Riddell]

Beta freeze for Beta 1 will come into effect in about 8 hours time (23 Feb 2012, 21:00UTC).

User Interface freeze is at the same time.

After the freeze and until Beta 1 is out all uploads will have to be
approved manually by the release team.

User interface changes will need approval by the release team
(https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-release) and notifications to the docs
team and translators.

We'll be needing beta candidates images over the next week so sign up now
