== What was done engineering wise? ==
This past week the Ubuntu kernel team uploaded the 3.2.0-8.14 kernel.
The most notable change is the rebase to upstream v3.2 final.
Additional changes include updating aufs, adding ext* modules to the
-virtual flavor, and improved statfs reporting for eCryptfs.
We have a large number of work items targeted for the Alpha2 release, of
which 65% (82/165) appear completed.
== What's about to land that might impact the other teams? ==
