Unseeded universe needs *you*

[Iain Lane]

Greetings,

With the seeded world pretty much finalised for release, you might be
finding yourself with copious amounts of free time. Instead of twiddling
your thumbs, how about helping out the (unseeded*) universe? We have
just over a day until the Unseeded Universe Final Freeze, which happens
tomorrow (24/04/12).

You might like to

Fix / triage RC bugs that were reported in Debian but aren't known to be
fixed in Ubuntu yet.

  http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/bugs/rcbugs/

Fix FTBFS discovered by the recent archive rebuild. If these can be
fixed by syncing in new revisions from Debian that include new features
then the release team are usually willing to accommodate.

  http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-rebuild-20120328-precise.html

Review the sponsorship list for things which we should squeeze into
Universe for the release.

  http://reports.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/

I'll try and make myself available for sponsorship and release questions
in #ubuntu-motu over the course of today and tomorrow. I hope others
will join me.

YEAH.

Cheers,
