Hi Lars

Change of plan.... The new kernel has been released and the world (not just
lubuntu) is being re-spun. This kernel will not solve the PPC issues, that
is planned for post A2. As such, with a new kenel due to sort out some
fundamental issues in PPC after A2, I (having double checked with the
-release team) don't think that it is worth your and other PPC testers
valuable time on an ISO that is most unlikely to see the light of day and
will be fundamentally changed shortly after A2 is released.

I appreciate that this can be frustrating, as A1 didn't work either. But,
on the brighter side of things - they are going to take some time to get to
grips with the no-go bugs from the A1 that still affect A2. The first Beta
is due at the end of August, I'm quietly hopeful that we will have working
PPC images on the daily section well before then.

Regards,

Phill.
