8.2 and 7.9 planning
Hi, We're somewhat overdue for both 8.2 and 7.9 now (in that order). Some potential September dates: 5/6th - okay for me 12/13th - the 12th doesn't work for me until at least mid-afternoon 19th/20th - looks okay 26th/27th - looks okay >From a quick chat, it appears that the CD team are okay with us doing the two releases back-to-back or on the same weekend, as long as we're okay with the media sets being produced at a slight delay, particularly for Wheezy; what are others thoughts on that? Cheers, Adam

Doing both on the same day sounds good to me fwiw. Cheers, Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I would only be available on Saturday afternoon and Sunday. Ansgar

As september is so far away from me, I don't have any preferences for any dates, so please pick whatever you see fit, and I'll (try to) follow.

That's looking promising in general, although if we're going to go for it then we'd need to announce soon. If your Internet hasn't materialised by then, would either of the other ftp-masters be available? Adam

Joerg indicated on IRC that he should be available. At least some of us discussed at Debconf the idea of doing both point releases on the same weekend; that seems to have been a good idea given Steve's availability. Is the 5th still okay with everyone, and do people have any preferences in terms of whether we do the two back-to-back or 8.2 on Saturday and 7.9 on Sunday? (I'd prefer back-to-back personally, as it slightly selfishly means I only have to do the post-point tidy-up once.) Regards, Adam

If it's not too much of a pain for people, then one after the other seemed the most sure way of making sure we get both done closer together - the longer we leave things between 8.2 and 7.9, the more likely the latter is to be awkward due to version skew. On the 5th I would be available only about 2 hours later than usual starting times. That seems like the favoured date so far, particularly given it's the only one that really works for Steve. Adam
