Dear Developers, The Karmic Feature Freeze is scheduled for this Thursday, August 27.
This means that all of your Karmic-targeted specs should be either at Beta Available or Postponed by the end of day on Wednesday. Please make sure to update the status of your specs. You should check that packages you care about are at a version suitable for release. Requests for freeze exceptions for main should be filed as bugs in Launchpad against the relevant package (or just "Ubuntu" if the package is not available yet). Once the bug is filed and the necessary information is available, please subscribe the ubuntu-release team. For universe, the motu-release team will approve new packages and upstream version freeze exceptions between now and the Beta. It is expected that the MOTU release team will also delegate responsibility for some exceptions to domain experts, as they have done in the past. Look for this list to arrive by Thursday. Please see this wiki page for full details on freeze exception requests: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess Cheers, -- Steve Langasek On behalf of the Ubuntu release team -- ubuntu-devel-announce mailing list ubuntu-devel-announce@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-announce
