Others should feel free to comment if they have information to add to the discussion. * When you've finished your comments on the current question/discussion topic, please use the convention ".." so we know you're done, and we can move on to the next queue'd up question (as indicated by a 'o/'). I'll try to call on folks in the order I see "o/"s showing up after the Q&C session starts. Once there are no more "o/"'s in the queue, we'll end the meeting, there won't be an any other business topic, etc. Suggestions on improving the above conventions are most welcome. == Hardware Certification team update - brendand == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001929.html == QA team update - gema == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001926.html * Work items: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-platform-qa.html * Upcoming tasks: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/+upcomingwork * Daily testing status can be found: * fresh ISO install: https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Quantal%20Daily%20ISOs/ * upgrades: https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Quantal/job/quantal-upgrade/ ## * to get test information pushed to you subscribe to: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-testing-notifications == Community testing update - balloons == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001932.html * Work items: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/group/topic-quantal-quality-community-testing.html == Security team update - mdeslaur == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001928.html * Work items: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/group/topic-quantal-security-essential.html * Upcoming tasks: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-security/+upcomingwork == Kernel team update - ogasawara == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001930.html * Work items: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-kernel-distro-team.html * Upcoming tasks: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-distro-team/+upcomingwork * Bugs: http://reports.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/kernel-bugs/reports/_kernel_hot_.html == Foundations team update - ogra == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001936.html * Work items:http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-foundations.html * Upcoming tasks: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-foundations/+upcomingwork == Server team update - arosales == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001933.html * Work items: * Infrastructure: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/group/topic-quantal-servercloud-infrastructure-deployment.html * LTS 12.04.1 hardening: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-precise/group/topic-quantal-servercloud-12.04.1.html * Juju charms and service orchestration: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-precise/group/topic-precise-servercloud-service-orchestration.html * cloud workload: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-precise/group/topic-precise-servercloud-workloads.html * ARM server: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/group/topic-quantal-servercloud-arm.html * Upcoming tasks: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-server/+upcomingwork * Bugs: http://status.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/ubuntu-server/release-bugs.html == Linaro update - fabo == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001934.html * Planning: https://launchpad.net/linaro-dev-platform/+milestone/12.07 == Ubuntu One Team - joshuahoover == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001931.html == Desktop Team update - didrocks == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001927.html * Team status: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus * Work items: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-desktop-team.html * Upcoming tasks: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-desktop-team/+upcomingwork == Unity Team update - popey == * see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-September/001935.html * plans: ??
