=== What was done engineering wise? ===
This week we have rebased the Quantal kernel to the latest v3.5-rc2
upstream Linux kernel.  We have not yet uploaded.  We are coordinating
with some other individuals, eg. DKMS package maintainers, to ensure we
have compatibility with this latest kernel before we upload.

We are above the trend line for completion of our Alpha-2 work items but
remain below overall.

=== What's about to land that might impact the other teams and release
as a whole? ===
I would anticipate a v3.5-rc2 based kernel upload in the near future.

=== Summary of bugs working on by team (reasonably reliable) ===
 * Bug:1003793 - broadcom wireless does not work with
quantal-backport-kernel
 * Bug:1004101 - [RFE] Allow Bug Reporting When Running Backport Kernel
