[ubuntu-x] [Fwd: Mesa 7.6 - key dates]

[Bryce Harrington]

Short story... we've planned to do mesa 7.6 since UDS, but at the last
couple of desktop team meetings (which I missed unfortunately) there was
concerns about this late update so it was decided to hold off on it.
Several of us had some offlist discussion about this, and reached a
compromise.  It was decided to go ahead with the original plan, but make
sure we have a solid strategy for testing and reverting the change if
there are severe problems.  In particular, the go/no-go decision is
going to be left to the QA team so we have an impartial third party
making the decision.

Following is the schedule Rick drew up to help organize efforts.
