Nicholas et al, Personally I think the testing last week was well timed with the changes that are taking place in Ubiquity. We found some bugs that will allow the devs a little more time to fix before the next cycle. If those changes led you to call for the cadence testing you did well. It appears a couple of critical ubiquity bugs will be cleared with ubiquity - 2.11.21. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1035167 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1034954 Maybe in tomorrow's spins. I will test a few tomorrow for sure. As far as fun goes.. Yeah I have fun testing mostly on my new/refurb Lenovo T61p.
