Re: Ubuntu 16.04.6 RC images for testing
Hello everyone, Sadly, as most of you know, a regression has been found during testing [1] which means new images had to be built. The issue has been fixed in ubiquity+user-setup and new images created [2], but all this means isos need to be re-tested once again. It's sad, because testing was going really smooth - we were basically 'ready' yesterday. But well, what kind of a release would it be without at least one respin, right? Thanks again to everyone participating!

So I marked the Ubuntu GNOME builds as disabled in the ISO tracker to not waste the valuable time of our ISO testers.
