What was done engineering wise?
This week we rebased the Quantal kernel to the latest v3.5-rc4 upstream Linux kernel and uploaded. This contained some critical bug fixes necessary for Alpha2. We also uploaded this 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've also recently uploaded the linux-ti-omap4-3.4.0-2.7 kernel to resolve 101009. This is currently building in the quantal-proposed pocket.
What's about to land that might impact the other teams and release as a whole?
Nothing at this time.
