Fwd: 12.04.2 status

[Nicholas Skaggs]

Here's information from the release folks about what's going on for 
12.04.2. You can help now by testing the dailies. Once the milestone is 
up, we'll try and help make sure the images all get verified properly 
and put out a proper call at that time. Thanks everyone!

BTW, if your curious, there's a new xstack, secure boot, and new kernel 
all coming in on these images to precise. Lots of stuff to play with :-)

Dear developers,

precise-proposed is now frozen for 12.04.2.  Any remaining uploads must
be critical for the point release.  If you have any doubt, consult with
me or Adam Conrad on #ubuntu-release.

The focus should now be on completing SRU verification
(http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html) and other
manual and automated testing, especially of the major hardware
enablement work (enablement kernel, enablement X.org stack, UEFI Secure
Boot).  Early next week I will start putting together updated release
notes, and will welcome assistance from product leads.

A rough timeline from here is as follows:

   Now
     Images built from -proposed; smoke testing; find and fix blockers;
     move verified fixes to -updates.  Accepting uploads into -proposed
     requires signoff from Colin or Adam.

   Between 2013-02-01 and 2013-02-07, as appropriate
     Start building images from -updates rather than -proposed.

   2013-02-07
     Most changes should now be verified and in -updates.  Build
     candidate images and run at least all mandatory tests.  Images
     respun only on demand with signoff from Colin or Adam.

   2013-02-14
     Release!

Thanks for your assistance,
