=== Status: Raring Development Kernel  ===
  We have rebased the Raring kernel to the latest v3.8-rc5 upstream
  kernel.  I'll plan to upload before EOD tomorrow.
  Important upcoming dates:
   * Raring:
    * Mon Feb 18 - 13.04 Month 4 Milestone (~3 weeks)
   * Precise:
    * Thu Feb 14 - 12.04.2 Release (~2 weeks)

=== Status: CVE's  ===
  Currently we have 34 CVEs on our radar, with 0 CVEs added and 2 CVE 
retired this week.
  See the CVE matrix for the current list:

=== Status: Stable, Security, and Bugfix Kernel Updates - 
Quantal/Precise/Oneiric/Lucid/Hardy  ===
  We're skipping a kernel SRU cadence to allow for an additional 3 weeks 
of testing for the kernel that will ship with the 12.04.2 point release.
  However, due to regressions, we currently have new Precise, Quantal 
and lts-Quantal kernels in Testing.
  Next week the regular SRU cycles will restart.
  Future stable cadence cycles:
