Upgrade Image Testing

[Elfy]

Between now and the Release Candidate, 10th April,  we want to 
concentrate on Upgrade Testing.

While these tests can be done in vm - they are likely to be 'clean' 
installs.

It would be better if we can get real life upgrades tested.

There are 2 upgrade routes we need to test

*12.04LTS to 14.04**
****
**13.10 to 14.04*

Testcases for both 64bit routes can be found at 
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/308/builds/65285/testcases

Testcases for both 32bit routes can be found at 
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/308/builds/65286/testcases

So, if you have a working version that you can upgrade, then please do 
so and - *importantly* - record the results on the tracker.

At this stage the image is pretty much as stable as it is going to be, 
the only changes we can foresee are bug fixes.

That said there are bugs present that 'could' cause issues, others that 
are cosmetic.

*Possible Bugs *

Known issues are noted on the blog and release note pages.

*Things to be aware of.*

If you are currently using the default wallpaper, it will be upgraded.

Change to light-locker from xscreensaver, xscreensaver will remain 
installed but light-locker will be the preferred locker.
