Fwd: Participation in 14.10 alpha-1 (due out this Thursday)

[Tim]

Hey All,
  So its time for another milestone release! I have a pretty busy week ahead so won't be around a whole lot the next few days, however if there
are any really critical bugs, let me know and I will try find time to take alook.

Ali: hoping you will be able to deal with this one, release notes and liasing with release team?

Everyone else: it would be great if someone on the qa team can step up and keep track of all the main issue/bugs that arise from the testing.
The major ones should go in the release notes, and the rest should be fixed for alpha2. I will at some point setup tags for utopic milestones so
we can assign the bugs to milestones.

Tim

Hey flavour leads,

14.10 Alpha 1 is due out on the 26th of June which happens to be this Thursday.

I'll be taking care of the cdimage side for you this time around so it'd
be great if participating flavours could reply to this e-mail to let me
know who they are. As usual, I'll setup a temporary britney block for
the affected packages and I'll take care of the final publishing on
Thursday.

I'm also on point for the release announcement though I'd gladly give
that to anyone who's interested as my own flavour (Edubuntu) will not be
participating in this milestone as we are now a LTS-only flavour and so
while we do make sure our stuff still works, we won't be participating
in any milestones until 16.04 alpha-1.


Timing wise, I'm planning to setup the migration block by 21:00 UTC on
Tuesday, I'd appreciate if flavours could get in touch by tomorrow 21:00
UTC so I can make sure all the affected cron entries are disabled and
that the ISO tracker is ready for you to trigger your builds.

Thanks!
