** WORK IN PROGRESS **

The intention of this handbook is to outline the role of the Ubuntu Kernel Release Manager. For general developer information such as building a kernel, please refer to the the Kernel/Dev area of the wiki.

Role of the Ubuntu Kernel Release Manager

  • Opening the release
  • Maintaining the release
  • Patch Review
  • Weekly Release Meeting
  • UDS Responsibilities
  • Vendor Relationships
