[QA Community] Release Meeting 2012-06-21

[Nicholas Skaggs]

=== What was done engineering wise? ===

* Pre-tested daily images in preperation for Alpha 2 testing next week. The builds over the last several days have been broken due to archive issues. 2 bugs have been confirmed; nothing critical.
* The QATracker enhancements went live on production
* Testcases are being migrated off thehttp://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/  wiki onto the QATracker. Newhttps://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-testcase  <https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-testcase>  team forming to help deal with maintaining and migrating tests.
* Met with ubuntu flavors teams (and community) to discuss QA best practices and collaboration. UTAH was demo'd as well as new testcase management features of the QATracker.

  === What's about to land that might impact the other teams and release as a whole? ===

* Kernel testing 12.10 on 12.04 will migrate to production tracker from the temporary home on the staging site.
* Ubuntu Devel Discussion Thread on release timings; Ubuntu QA Community will be altering cadence of testing to every 2 weeks (this shouldn't impact milestone testing)
* Meeting with HEXR team to discuss requirements document for community hardware database

=== Summary of bugs working on by team (reasonably reliable) ===

* Cannot select gtk dropdown list value in multiple applications: ubiquity, landscape clienthttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk3-engines-unico/+bug/1015497  
* This appears to be a potential regression, with far reaching ramifications
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/1005677
* The community is having trouble understanding how the archive and packages are changing without being able to see what's changing in the changelogs, due to a server issue
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1001609  <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk3-engines-unico/+bug/1015497>

=== Dependencies on other teams to make deliverables, blocking items, release wide concerns? ===

* Community Unity testing process is still being finalized; needs to fit into the new structure

Thanks,
Nicholas
