So. Now the dust has settled a bit - are people actually wanting to try for a time when more can attend - which is always going to be hard with those pesky timezones - or not. regards On 28/07/16 18:20, Walter Lapchynski wrote: [snip] -- Ubuntu-quality mailing list Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubun

As much as Lubuntu has consistently been involved in every milestone, I think, honestly, less milestones is attractive. It will, as Nio said, cause us to focus less on getting each milestone out and instead focus on testing across a wider scope. At least, that would be the emphasis to my team. On

Hi, [continuing top posting] I suggest a compromise with one alpha and one beta release before the final release. But we should also remind each other to check the daily iso files - at least check the basic functions (that the live session and installer work) Best regards Nio Den 2016-07-2

Do you think it necessary to have 3 milestones leading up to the final beta? On Fri, Jul 29, 2016 at 10:50 AM, Martin Wimpress wrote: > Hi, > > Excuse the top posting, I've only got my phone with me. > > The timing didn't work for me to attend the meeting. But I'm certainly > interested in keepi

Well, it didn't seem like anyone showed up and some folks complained about the timing, while others said they'd rather not talk at all. That being said, perhaps we should discuss this in the mailing list. Is there anyone amongst flavors who would like to continue doing milestones? If not, maybe w

Agree with the sentiment. Not so sure about the need for a meeting less than 24hours after you bumped the subject. I know I'll likely not make it. On 28/07/16 18:20, Walter Lapchynski wrote: That being said, let's talk! I'd like to suggest we get together in #ubuntu-meeting tomorrow F

This is well worth bringing up again, at least if we care about milestones. It's clear that Ubuntu does not. In fact, some of the Release Team would argue that we would be better off doing a wider scope of testing daily and I don't disagree. Canonical will not be holding our hands on this one. We n
