Colin Watson (Kamion)

Done:

  • dapper-point-release-process: SPARC fixes done; David Miller is testing them. Still trying to get the images down to size. Unapproved queue holding steady. Should be ready to start widespread testing today or so.
  • ubiquity-advanced-partitioner: First cut at backend component done; it can build a correct-looking cache of what partman thinks of the partition layout, and it should be able to create, edit, and delete partitions. Seems to validate general approach.
  • migration-assistant: Reviewed various chunks of work from my Google Summer of Code student, and uploaded the first packages to universe.
  • ubiquity: Rewrote localechooser's encoding handling to clear up bugs like #47742 (carried over from previous weeks).

Blocked:

  • revive-tasksel: Still waiting for Soyuz deployment before final sign-off.

To do:

  • ubiquity-advanced-partitioner: Next step is to glue a plain partition list display and a few buttons onto the front of this. Will need to handle resizing in the backend soon as well.
  • dapper-point-release-process: Do all the rest of it ...
