 * We are still in freeze for delivering unity 5.6. Got quite a lot of release blocker revealed by dogfooding and the crowdsourced manual tests. We are blocking on a last one right now, which is "holding alt doesn't show the appmenu": https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/943194/. Some work was done on compiz side, but it seems that the issue is a little bit deeper (affects now only xul, gtk2 and qt applications, gtk3 are working fine). As unity-2d is running fine with those though, it doesn't seem to be a service issue. Still under investigation. All the other discovered blockers are now fixed (see them at the bottom of https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AuMtju1x8UoEdDNCT1U5MlVodjIwNGJPdnU5YVltVmc#gid=1)
 * Compiz release based on 0.9.7.0 + some cherry-picks is also ready in the unity-team/ppa and will be released at the same time than unity 5.6. Will finally bring the "alt + other key, please please don't reveal the hud" fix and the last week 51% performance fix as well.
 * Unity-2d 5.6 released on Monday. Will just need a rebuild because of ABI break once unity 5.6 will be released. This one contains the HUD and some bug fixes: https://launchpad.net/unity-2d/5.0/5.6
   * There is a new known issue in beta1, where hidemode for unity 2d is set on the live to 2 (intellihide) instead of 0 (always shown). The dconf schema has 0 by default. If we gsettings reset… we get 0. So something is setting it to 2 on the live. Will need to investigate it.
 * Helped on new quickly unity-lens template based on singlet work with Michael Hall. Waiting NEWing: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/942782. Creating a python lens is just now a story of quickly create unity-lens foo \o/

Weekly Summary
