Security team development (ie specification work) is done as time allows. This page does not include security updates, audits, investigations, etc. This page only includes information on proactive development work as it pertains to the Ubuntu Release schedule. Blueprints that the security team is committed to completing in a development cycle have an 'Essential' priority.
