=== Status: Raring Development Kernel  ===
  Coming off Beta Freeze last week, we have since rebased Raring to the
  v3.8.6 upstream stable kernel and uploaded.  With Kernel Freeze in
  ~2days, we will perform one more upload prior to Kernel Freeze. All
  patches submitted after Kernel Freeze must adhere to our SRU policy.
  Only critical bug fixes for the release will warrant an upload.
  Important upcoming dates:
   * Thurs Apr 11 - Kernel Freeze (~2 days)
   * Thurs Apr 18 - Final Freeze (~1 week)
   * Thurs Apr 25 - Ubuntu 13.04 Final (~2 weeks)

=== Status: CVE's  ===
  == 2013-04-09 (weekly) ==
  Currently we have 73 CVEs on our radar, with 5 CVE retired this week.
  See the CVE matrix for the current list:
