We haven't heard anything, has anyone had time to look at this? We're keen to get started with testing this ASAP so we have sufficient testing time, but these issues are blocking most of our team. Any kind of response would be appreciated (even if it's "this will be fixed soon" "we need more info" or "try this...").

Are there any thoughts on how this would work in a rolling release model? (there are probably other teams too, but these spring to mind immediately) I think having some expectations of what we would want to release each monthly with regard to localization and documentation and getting these teams involved in the discussion is important before any decisions are made. -- Elizabeth Krumbach // Lyz // pleia2 http://www.princessleia.com -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel

Re: Marketing Xubuntu

I'd love to see more (some?) Xubuntu stuff on spreadubuntu.org. We're also in the middle of getting a test site together for a migration of xubuntu.org to wordpress, perhaps once that's done we can also add a "promote xubuntu" page to the site? We don't exactly make it easy for folks who already support us to get ahold of our logos (you have to search on our wiki) and other things so people can put "badges" on their blogs and things. > As an aside, we are holding a Lindependence event to coincide with > Software Freedom Day in September.

I was planning on coming anyway :) so I'd be happy to do some Xubuntu showing off. -- Elizabeth Krumbach // Lyz // pleia2 http://www.princessleia.com -- xubuntu-devel mailing list xubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel
