Main frozen for Alpha 1
Dear developers, Two days out from the expected release of Lucid Alpha 1, the milestone freeze is now in effect. Please take care that any packages that you upload to main between now and the Alpha 1 release will help us in the goal of a high quality and timely alpha, and hold any disruptive or unnecessary uploads until after the alpha is out. Again, this means the primary focus should be on resolving these bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+bugs?field.milestone=21443 The number of bugs targeted to this early milestone is fairly small, but there's plenty of other work to be done in getting the archive in a consistent state so that we don't have uninstallable packages for the alpha-1 milestone: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive#Consistency Remember that this is a soft freeze, so you are each responsible for making sure your uploads are appropriate - Launchpad will not be your safety net. Packages that are not seeded on the CDs (i.e., most packages in universe, with the exception of UbuntuStudio, Xubuntu, and Mythbuntu packages) may be uploaded as usual.

Main frozen for Alpha-1
Hi all, We're about two days before the expected release of Karmic Alpha 1, so the milestone freeze is now in effect. Please take care that any packages that you upload to main between now and the Alpha 1 release will help us in the goal of a high quality and timely alpha, and hold any disruptive or unnecessary uploads until after the alpha is out. The list of blocking bugs for alpha-1 is currently empty, but during image testing it is expected to get some: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+bugs?field.milestone=2209 Last night's updates caused a lot of breakage unfortunately, despite the early warning last Friday. There's plenty of other work to be done in getting the archive in a consistent state so that we don't have uninstallable packages for the alpha-1 milestone: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive#Consistency Remember that this is a soft freeze, so you are each responsible for making sure your uploads are appropriate - Launchpad will not be your safety net. Packages that are not seeded on the CDs (i.e., most packages in universe, with the exception of UbuntuStudio, Xubuntu, and Mythbuntu packages) may be uploaded as usual.

Main frozen for Alpha 1
Hi all, We're about two days before the expected release of Jaunty Alpha 1, so the milestone freeze is now in effect. Please take care that any packages that you upload to main between now and the Alpha 1 release will help us in the goal of a high quality and timely alpha, and hold any disruptive or unnecessary uploads until after the alpha is out. Again, this means the primary focus should be on resolving these bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+bugs?field.milestone=2209 The number of bugs targeted to this early milestone is quite small, but there's plenty of other work to be done in getting the archive in a consistent state so that we don't have uninstallable packages for the alpha-1 milestone: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive#Consistency Remember that this is a soft freeze, so you are each responsible for making sure your uploads are appropriate - Launchpad will not be your safety net. Packages that are not seeded on the CDs (i.e., most packages in universe, with the exception of UbuntuStudio, Xubuntu, and Mythbuntu packages) may be uploaded as usual. Since there is still some work to be done to get the installer ready for Jaunty, it's possible that this first milestone will not be ready on Thursday, but we will do our best to have it out as close to schedule as possible.
