- Freezes normally happen at the start of the given date, UTC time. So last minute changes need to happen the day before.

There are a wide variety of areas to focus on to ensure quality in the Ubuntu distribution. The QA Focus indicates where our efforts should be focused in descending order.

Focus explanation
- SRU (Stable Release Update) Verification - the process of installing packages from the -proposed repository for a release and testing to ensure that it fixes the SRU bug and has no regressions
- Forwarding bugs - sending bug reports to upstream, developers of the software, bug trackers to ensure the bug has the greatest number of developers working on it
- Solicit kernel testing - due to the large volume and possibility of regressions for kernel bugs not every bug may get fixed. Subsequently, we solicit testing of milestones for unfixed hardware specific kernel bugs.
- intrepid-qa bug lists - these are created by the Canonical QA team for subteams (platform, desktop, server) of the distribution team
- ISO testing - testing of the daily builds leading up to a milestone
Finish string-fix bugs - any outstanding string-fix bug reports should be fixed before the DocumentationStringFreeze
- Test case review - review of the ISO test cases after User Interface freeze for upcoming ISO testing
- Triage of Intrepid bugs - 'nuff said!
