Next Week
Hope your Friday treated you well :-) Enjoy the weekend. Upcoming events for next week involve hopefully getting our hands on the first unity testing this cycle, and our cadenced iso testing. Our goal for the week is to have every image's mandatory testcases pass at some point during the week. To a wonderful weekend and a happy week of testing.

QA Team Meeting and Bugs Meeting split from next week
Dear all, in an attempt to get more involvement from the community in *bug analysis and triaging* and *quality assurance and testing*, the BugSquad and QA Platform Teams have decided to split the Wed 18:00 GMT Ubuntu QA Team Meeting in two separate meetings with separate objectives. Since we are going to be putting a lot of effort this cycle into ensuring testing and bug triaging are done better and we are going to be contributing in different ways to improving the quality of Ubuntu, we've decided to schedule two meetings so that people interested in bug triaging do not need to hear all about the testing and vice versa. Having said that, we are aware that some contributors are interested in the two areas, so we've scheduled the new QA Team meeting one hour earlier than the Bug Squad meeting, so that if someone wishes so, they can attend both without too much disruption. Please, for further information keep an eye on: * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Meetings - Wed 17:00 GMT *Focus*: QA platform activities, calls for testing, community feedback, etc. *Who should attend*: Anyone interested in contributing doing testing for Ubuntu is welcome to attend and start sharing their views, contributing. We'll make sure all the efforts count towards the quality of the coming release. * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/Meetings - Wed 18:00 GMT *Focus*: Bug triaging, mentoring of new members, ongoing activities discussion, etc. *Who should attend*: Anyone interested in bug triaging, bug management, bug metrics and classification of bugs. Next week we will be discussing the new agendas and agreeing on a new format that makes sense. Pedro will be chairing the Bugs meeting and I will be chairing the QA Team meeting, we hope we see you all there!

Natty Alpha2 Next Week. Sync your ISOs !
Hey All, Just a quick reminder, there is an ISO testing week, next week! Natty Alpha2 is going to be released on Thursday 3rd Feb. and we need to test the ISOs to make sure that installation and functionalities are working correctly. Please, sync your ISOs over the weekend, so you are prepared (or at least have less to sync) when the Release Team start posting images to the ISO tracker [1]. To zsync your images, you can use the *dl-ubuntu-test-iso* script, which is part of the ubuntu-qa-tools package. Also, if you don't know how ISO testing works, you can have a look to our procedures [2]. Thanks all! Enjoy your week-end!

Help needed: Alpha 2 Testing next week
Hello all, It is that time of the release cycle again :-) Next week, Thursday 14th, Lucid Alpha 2 is going to be released. But, before that, we have to prove that our ISOs are good enough for release. >From Tuesday we will start testing the candidate images. To help, you will need an account in the ISO tracker [1]. You should all have accounts on the tracker from last time. Please register if you are new to this or ask me if you need to know your login or have your password reset :) This blog post is useful as starting guide of the ISO testing procedures: http://tinyurl.com/yjujh6c We will coordinate testing in #ubuntu-testing on freenode. Please, go there often to see what others are testing or what needs to be tested. Thank you very much for your help and happy testing! Cheers, Ara.
