Xenial 16.04.4 Call For Testing (All Flavours)

[Lukasz Zemczak]

Hey Ian!

Please see my earlier message to ubuntu-release@ - all the release
candidates for .4 are being re-built, i.e. new images for each flavour
are being created. This essentially means some testing needs to be
re-done, sadly. But this should be the final set of images for this
milestone.
Please wait for the builds to finish (should only take a little while)
and then resume testing.

Thank you!
