I noticed that we now have a Cadence testing schedule and in order to capture the current state I posted some screenshots here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2140142&p=12659708#post12659708 It appears to me that we're not truly doing a two week cadence this time, there are at least two three week intervals, eh? Or maybe I'm just being premature in my judgment? @ Julien, Phill, and the Lubuntu QA team, I want to be sure we make the "right" decisions regarding which "opt-in" choices we make. As previously stated Alpha 2 and Alpha 3 are only two weeks apart which gives little room to breathe, and I also have Ubuntu 12.04.3 testing to focus on the week beginning August 12th.
