** Description changed: - To be filled in... + Several features which have been requested to support are part of Xen-4.7. Backporting the code for those is high risk and effort: + - https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1460900 + - https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328027 + - https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1460904 + - https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1611210 + - https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1611242 - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#FeatureFreeze_for_new_upstream_versions + There is no changes/news file which could be diffed, however the Xen + project website has feature page (if that helps): + https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_Project_4.7_Feature_List - FeatureFreeze for new upstream versions + I have release candidate of the new package uploaded to my PPA (along + with qemu and libvirt built against the new Xen version): - If you want to introduce a new upstream version with new features and/or - ABI/API changes, please file a bug - - state the reason why you feel it is necessary - * (other bugs it fixes, etc.) - - attach (as files) - * diff of the Upstream ChangeLog (not debian/changelog) - * diff -u <package>-{old-version,new-version}/ChangeLog > changelog.diff - * note that the ChangeLog sometimes is called CHANGES, is missing or the tarball merely has a NEWS file. - * the NEWS file, if you think that this information helps reviewing your request (true for most gnome packages) - * build log (as file) - * pbuilder has the --logfile option. - * pbuilder-dist and cowbuilder-dist automatically save it as last_operation.log. - * install log - * for instance a copy and paste of the install messages from console when installing - * mention what testing you've done to see that it works - * a screenshot showing the main features could also be nice - * subscribe (do not assign to) the 'ubuntu-release' team. - - Please note that we expect requesters to have an updated package already - prepared and tested! You will need this anyway to provide proper build - logs. - - Once the Feature Freeze Exception has been ACK'd by a member of the - Release Team, the status will be changed to TRIAGED. You can then either - upload the package (in case you're in motu or ubuntu-core-dev), or - follow the SponsorshipProcess. Please close the bug from the upload, - where possible. + https://launchpad.net/~smb/+archive/ubuntu/xen?field.series_filter=yakkety
