Bumping this for flavour teams.

We've just released the last of the milestones Ubuntu aren't involved in 
for this cycle.

So we now have 3 or 4 months until the next Alpha milestone comes around.

Surely that's enough time to come to some sort of decision on this.

It would be nice to see some representation from the flavours who've not 
'run' the community side as yet.
