Hi Clint, I think this really needs some further clarification. I followed this process earlier this year, when performing an SRU for bind9 which involved a new upstream version.. This was jumping from upstream versions 9.7.0 -> 9.7.3 in Lucid. I raised the subject with the TB, and mdz responded that: "MicroReleaseExceptions is a list of standing exceptions. It's not necessary to go through the tech board to handle one-off requests like this one. The SRU team can decide what to do here without TB involvement." [0] Is this still the case?
