Would be good I suppose. Testing on vivid is plenty more valuable at this point anyway. >> That wiki page should be prominent in our >> https://community.kde.org/Kubuntu space, I'm thinking. As per usual I am confused with the wiki documentation anyway. I distinctly remember Jon at least rewriting the CI related testing documentation entirely and pointing that at our PPA wiki page. Alas, that does not appear to be on the Plasma/Packages. Mostly worth crying over. Anyway, I don't think featuring it on the Kubuntu main page is necessary or useful community.kde.org is for internal documentation purposes so the majority of people should only end up there when pointed to something specific. But if you feel it is useful by all means add some pointer ^^ >> Since this is a matter of policy, can the rest of the council speak up >> please? -- kubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-devel
