Re: ACTION: nealmcb will send an email to ubuntu-server ml about blueprints cleaning
Here is a followup on blueprints. Thanks to Mathias for creating this wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/HardyIdeaPool which is a wiki page where folks can list ideas for specs for Hardy. I added a number of See Also links there, and also a link to every existing spec that is subscribed to by at least three server team members, or two members and the team itself. That should make it easy to grab some existing specs that you might want to spruce up and nominate for Hardy and put in in one of the categories higher up on the page. Unfortunately we can't see which specs are _proposed_ for the next UDS meeting (https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/blueprint/+bug/66093) - that is reported as a UI issue in launchpad which is being worked on. Is anyone privy to that information who can share it with us? I also think a better, ubuntu-wide way of marking old specs as outdated is needed.
