 I'd note that this section of the meeting is becoming less and less
 useful to me in its current form.  I'd like to take a vote to skip this
 section until I/we can find a better solution.  All in favor (ie +1)?
 I'll take silence as agreement as well :)
 ppisati: +1
 jsalisbury: +1
 rtg: +1
 ogasawara: ok, motion passed.
 (actually the same could be said for the ARM status part since support
it's part of generic now FWIW)
 Dropping ARM Status from this meeting as well.

=== Status: Utopic Development Kernel  ===
 We have rebased our Utopic kernel to v3.15 final and uploaded
 (3.15.0-6.11).  As noted in previous meetings, we are planning on
 converging on the v3.16 kernel for Utopic.  We have started tracking
 v3.16-rc1 in our "unstable" ubuntu-utopic branch.  We'll let this
 marinate and bake for a bit before we do an official v3.16 based upload
 to the archive.
