pgraner's notes

• New release tasks
  • Patch review
    • Need to be sure that when we drop a patch, it's an explicit decision, and coordinated with developers who might be depending on it.
    • next rebase to include a public review of all patches and their fate (e.g. on ubuntu-devel@lists)?
    • Upstreaming of Sauce patches.
• Tree Mgt.
  • Locking the tree past kernel freeze
  • LP bugs needed for check in
  • Why do we rebase?
  • Keep our tree in sync with mainline and branch for releases
