Get your testing fingers ready; Alpha 2 is upon us. The first images will be landing soon and we'll start the process of verifying and ensuring the images are worthy to be called Alpha 2. For those running Quantal day to day over the last few weeks, you know things have started to land that is keeping you on your toes!
As part of the effort for improving communication during testing, the platform QA team will be live broadcasting a google hangout starting tomorrow when the images are live. The link below will contain the stream once it's live. http://qa.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-qa-google-hangouts/ In addition, the notice board on the tracker will attempt to convey information on when and why respins are occur as well as the bugs that forced the re-spin. As always, the #ubuntu-testing IRC channel and the mailing list are open to you for more information. If you haven't subscribed to be informed about new builds for your iso, please do so. It will help keep you informed as we do the iso testing for the milestone. Here's a few links that may come in useful for you: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Procedures I can highly recommend zsync and, if your testing must occur in a VM, testdrive. Zsync makes it easy to keep your isos up-to-date without having to re-download them. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsingDevelopmentReleases As always, happy testing everyone!
