Excellent News,

Once again Jonathan, thanks for coming on board and sharing some of the work
load off Julien.

Regards,

Phill.

 Nothing for now, because I still hope that the ISO will be build with
 the official infrastructure. I don't want to spend too much time on
 something that could be obsolete shortly. I also prbably know where is
 the bug (same that the same time), I just need to spend some minutes
 to focus on this.

  Is the creation of the LUbuntu ISO (including its md5sum used by the
  autotest menu entry) somewhat automated?  I'd look at what broke, and tr

  my own machine(s)!
 
  Can I/we do anything to help with this -- including updating whatever

 See last comment.

  It is mildly frustrating to want to help, have the necessary tech skills
  to help, but be unable to help -- because existing processes within this
  team are either not documented, or the docs are not readily
  discoverable.  How can we, as the LUbuntu team, improve in this area?

 Yes, sorry about that. I'm the one to blame :-/
 I try to document the wiki for all the maintenance stuff here :
 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Developers/

 I also work a lot with Launchpad to follow bugs :
 https://bugs.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-packaging/+packagebugshttps://bugs.launchpad.net/%7Elubuntu-packaging/+packagebugs

 I also planned to push the packaging work on git (with the debian
 one). It's something that I always postpone because I was the only
 packager. If you plan to work on this, I can push them during the
 week-end.

 I hope I'm complete enough, just ping me on IRC or on the mailing list
 during the week-end if you need more information.

 Regards,
 Julien Lavergne

LUbuntu has created multiple ISOs already, and will create more... so
let's get how we do that turned into shared, documented team knowledge,
and ideally let's turn it into an automated, repeatable, and reliable
process.

Thanks,

Jonathan
