So you want to ride the CI train? Great, here is what you need to know:

== Introduction ==
 * Its all in one google spreedsheet that mostly updates itself automatically (its a frontend to jenkins)
 * First column in the spreedsheet is important! Keep attention to the number of free silos, try to keep slios free
 * The spreedsheet has multiple page, the main one is "pending", but there is a important one "Archive" that contains *all* of the history
 * Merge propoosal to land (row F) is important, order is important too but its not limited to a single project
 * Additional source packages to land: you need to dput these additional source packages from the archive into the silo PPA
 * QA sign off needed: only in effect if we are in train-con-zero - and then *only* stuff with QA-sign-off: no can enter the image
 * Ready? : really important, once its ready, assign to a silo

== Terms ==
 * Silo are PPAs that are used to prepare a landing
 * Landers are trusted people of the upstream project who can drive landing and do the final testing
 * TrainCon-Zero: when no new image is generated for 7 buisiness days this "emergency" state is reached and only critical fixes can go in

== Important links ==

 * Main landing spreadsheet: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/citrain (refreshes every 5min)
 * Jenkins that is controlled via the spreedsheet: https://ci-train.ubuntu.com/
 * Code for the spreedsheet: lp:cupstream2distro
 * Testing results: http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/utopic/touch/
 
== Tutorial ==
 * landing for autopilot:
   * check if it has a testplan
   * check that its ready
   * go to the "Landing team tools" menubar and click on "assign silo"
     * this generates a request-id that is valid for 5min
     * opens a dialog that you need to check
     * the jenkins tab opens, click on "proceed"
