Cadence Week 1 is here!

[Nicholas Skaggs]

Alright, I know several of you are particularly excited about this. Our 
first cadence week is here. Starting June 15th, we'll be testing images 
and packages over the course of the next week. So what is cadence 
testing? Have a look at this page to get more information:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cadence

In short, as a community we're testing different things about every ~2 
weeks in ubuntu, and sharing results to flesh out bugs and problem 
areas. The full schedule is here, but note the release schedule changed 
TODAY, so this will be updated as well to reflect those changes very soon.

So what's up for testing this week? The daily images, the default 
applications in ubuntu (we'll start tracking them all throughout the 
cycle) and a new version of alsa testing. Full details are here:

If you need help submitting results, have a look at this page, 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/QATracker, and the walkthroughs listed. 
Of particular interest is the ISO testing and Cadence Week testing 
walkthroughs.

Do note that you don't need anything special to participate in cadence 
week testing! Both an installed version of the development branch of 
ubuntu (aka saucy) in a VM or on a real box, or even a live session of 
the lastest daily image will work.

Good luck! Bear in mind this is the first week for our new format, so 
there may be growing pains. Feedback is very much appreciated. Thanks 
and Happy Testing everyone,

Nicholas

PS. A note; as of this email, I am still adding the ubuntu default apps, 
slowly but surely to the package tracker. They should be there before 
tomorrow :-) Also the version tracking is still coming online in case 
your watching :-)
