We uploaded the 3.5.0-13.13 and 3.5.0-13.14 Quantal kernels this week. The most
notable changes include a rebase to upstream v3.5.3 and some misc bug fixes. We
do not anticipate any further uploads before Beta-1. As usual, we also uploaded
these kernels to the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to facilitate testing
of the 12.10 kernel in 12.04. Please test and let us know your results.
We received a freeze exception this week and uploaded the 3.5.0-17.28
kernel. This most notably contained some critical bug fixes for the
following:

 * Bug:1061599 - beagle: omap3: usb is dead
 * Bug:1021471 - clone() hang when creating new network namespace
 * Bug:1030233 -not have bluetooth usb 0489:e046 Foxconn / Hon Hai
 * Bug:717970 - After sleep, key presses get lost and trackpad is jittery

As usual, we also uploaded this kernel to the
ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to facilitate testing of the
12.10 kernel in 12.04. Please test and let us know your results.

What was done engineering wise?

We received a freeze exception this week and uploaded the 3.5.0-17.28 kernel. This most notably contained some critical bug fixes for the following:
