We have coordinated one additional upload scheduled for today 17:01:06 (likely to occur after this meeting).

We ran into a couple of very bad regressions 17:02:21 that were pretty quickly identified. Our policy is to "revert aggressively" however 17:02:22 our number one rule is to "Use our best judgement and do the right thing". In this 17:02:23 case we are also running into the end of the Precise development cycle when testing 17:02:24 resources (human) are scarce. After discussing this with a number of people we have 17:02:25 decided to fix these known regressions and also pull in the stable release that was 17:02:26 sitting on master-next and crank that out. The cycle will be extended with regression 17:02:27 testing happening the week of May 1st. 17:02:28 17:02:29 * Hardy - 2.6.24-31.101 - Nothing this cycle 17:02:30 * Lucid - 2.6.32-41.88 - Verification; 52 commits in total. 17:02:31 * Maverick - 2.6.35-32.68 - Ready for -updates; NOTE: THIS IS THE LAST MAVERICK KERNEL! 17:02:32 * Natty - 2.6.38-14.58 - Ready for -updates; 12 commits in total. Mostly eCryptfs and KVM. 17:02:33 * Oneiric - 3.0.0-19.32 - Verification; 17:02:34 17:02:35 Current opened tracking bugs details: 17:02:36 * http://people.canonical.com/~kernel/reports/kernel-sru-workflow.html 17:02:37 17:02:38 For SRUs, SRU report is a good source of information: 17:02:39 * http://people.canonical.com/~kernel/reports/sru-report.html 17:02:40 17:02:41 Future stable cadence cycles: 17:02:42 * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseInterlock 17:02:43 17:02:44 .. 17:03:05 [TOPIC] Open Discussion or Questions?
