=== Blueprints: Natty Bug Handling ===
Nothing to report
=== Blueprints: Enhancements to the firmware test suite ===
Changes to fwts (natty development branch):
* Fix DMAR test: double free error.
* Tests: smbios, virt, crs, apicinstance - mark tests status correctly.
* Restructure arg handing - more generic modular and extensible.
* add --s3-device-check, --s4-device-check options.
* add --s3-quirks, --s4-quirks options.
* add --s3-device-check-delay, --s4-device-check-delay options.
* improve s3,s4 args value range checking.
* improved progress feedback, s3, s4 tests.
* s3, s4 tests: add device checking pre/post each cycle.
=== Blueprints: Review of the Stable Maintenance Process ===
New kernels packages were build and uploaded last week for all supported series. These have been copied to the -proposed and the verification phase has begun. Verification tags should all be in place today.
=== Status: Cert. Team ===
We will start next week with a new cycle of SRU testing for Maverick and Lucid, as soon as the validation phase is finished.
Going forward, if that's possible, we would appreciate if you could subscribe the Hardware Certification team to the tracking bugs that we need to test (Lucid and Maverick kernels, non EC2 kernels). Thanks!
=== Status: Ecryptfs ===
* Some minor improvements to the base code have been made
* The longname in header version isn't stable yet as it ate my data last night :(
* Still waiting on upstream review
* the on disk format can not be considered stable as it may change based on upstream review
* starting to get wider testing, with latest built kernel attached to bug
* setting up ppa to facilitate even wider testing, though I am still worried about this being used by people who aren't aware of potential breakage
* userspace tools updates to make configuration by users feasible yet to be done (kirkland has volunteered)
=== Status: Natty ===
The natty kernel is now at v2.6.38-3.30 (v2.6.38-rc4 based). We are expecting v2.6.38-rc5 to release imminently and we plan on uploading as soon as that is available. Overall we have most of our development out of the way, with just the ecryptfs long
filename work ongoing. It looks like the v2.6.38 final will drop arround A3 so we should have a good period before final release.
