Hey all,
This coming Saturday is a double point release day, with updates due
to be published for trixie (13.6) and bookworm (12.15). With two
releases on the same day, we'll have a lot of images to produce and
test.
By unfortunate coincidence, several of our normal testers will not be
around and able to help with testing. Now would be an awesome time to
help us if you can!
On the day, there are two parts to watch:
* we track what tests people are working on in a page in the wiki;
see the latest example in
https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianCD/ReleaseTesting/Trixie_r5
It's worth checking that you understand the descriptions of each
test there. Also: ensure you have a wiki account ready and working
beforehand. :-)
* we co-ordinate in IRC - see #debian-cd on irc.debian.org /
irc.debian.org; if you'd rather use matrix, then I think the
existing IRC-matrix bridge should work.
(Depending on the number of people joining in remotely, we may start a
video call too.)
We typically start working around 1000 UTC, depending on the timing of
the work of the ftpteam and release team.
The first image builds will start turning up maybe 90 minutes or so
after we start the build process, then we run until we've done all the
tests we want.
Please let me know if you're able to assist!
