The status page (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Cadence/Status) is 
showing we still need some help on amd64+mac, along with some test for 
wubi, and ARM. I'll be testing ARM tonight and tomorrow, those of you 
with ARM hardware consider also pitching in a result this week if your 
able :-) I know Tobias is still working on results for wubi as well, and 
I can help with the cd boot helper tests. That just leaves us with the 
amd64+mac builds to test. Does anyone have mac hardware who is willing 
to test an install for this iso?

Thanks!

Nicholas

P.S. I've seen bugs and reports that ubiquity is buggy and unstable in 
todays build. If you find that to be true in testing, don't panic! File 
any bugs you find and try to complete the install. If it fails, still 
report it. A failed to install is still a valid result!
