some point on Friday 17th April this week, the Release Candidate

tracker [1]
<br>
<br>
We would love to see the tracker full of reports from you. If
there are insufficient tests reported we are not necessarily going
to be in a position to mark the tests as ready, if that happens -
we won't be releasing Xubuntu on the 23rd April.
<br>
<br>
Testing an image is generally pretty straightforward [2]
<br>
<br>
I'd urge people with the spare time, capacity to run an install
test on hardware, or in a virtual machine to please do so.
<br>
<br>
I'd also like to remind people that we might even send you an
Xubuntu sticker pack. [3]
<br>
<br>
Please remember to check back on the tracker between the 17th and
the 23rd, rebuilds happen fairly often, even this late in the
cycle.
<br>
<br>
Thanks for all that you do, let's do more in the last stretch.
<br>
<br>
Regards

As is normal links to the images we need testing. <br>
<br>
In addition to the general 32 and 64 bit install tests, upgrade
tests are important as well - especially *real* upgrades. I can
smoketest a clean install and upgrade - not anywhere close to one
done in the real world.<br>

<br>
One last point - and an important one, if you get affected by the "<span
id="yui_3_10_3_1_1429343080795_51" style="max-width: 95%;"
class="yui3-editable_text-text ellipsis">vivid fails to shutdown
or reboot at end of installation when "reboot now" button is
pressed"</span> bug please mark test as <b><u>failed with
critical bug</u></b>.<br>
<br>
I would be surprised if you don't get affected by that.<br>
<br>
Thanks all<br>
