[ubuntu-studio-devel] Coming Zesty Milestones

[Ross Gammon]

Hi All,

A quick update on this. With the help & sponsorship of Jeremy Bicha, we
have just got ubuntustudio-meta & ubuntustudio-default-settings uploaded
for Zesty.

I had to manually revert back to revision 128 after battling with bzr
and losing. (I would be glad if we could move our repos to git!). I
tested in a ppa last night, and us-controls was crashing. Looks like
something wrong with glade. It is possible I £$%^&ed up the manual
reversion and forgot an xml tag or something. I will take a look again
over the weekend, but if someone else spots the error first I would be
grateful, as I have to work one day this weekend.

In any case, we are past the date for the Feature Freeze, so technically
we will require approval from the Release Team in the form of a freeze
exception - which I can't imagine they would block.

Cheers,

Ross
