any thoughts on why we might have quality
issues with .0 releases or is it really mostly about the schedule?
I don't think it's *mostly* about schedule... it's mostly about lack of
upstream QA. But schedule plays a significant role, too, especially
since we rely so much on downstream QA that is only just now getting
started, after we've entered our final code freeze.
Earlier testing of the beta releases in Ubuntu would definitely help a
lot. The earlier we start testing .90, the better.
I guess the problem with my proposal is if you hope .1 to be released
before Ubuntu beta freeze, that definitely won't be possible. (Then
again, ideally Ubuntu beta would ship a month earlier with .90, and
GNOME packages would be updated several times between then and the
final release.) If we shift back two weeks, the .1 tarball deadline
would be October 10, still leaving plenty of time to update to .1
before Ubuntu final release if you're willing to do that...?
