To be an effective tool, it's important that release team members use the above-mentioned etherpad page to record why they've accepted a CD-affecting package from the freeze queue when they do so, as well as recording any arguments for/against accepting a package in the queue (e.g., if there's a blocking issue to be resolved before the package can be accepted, or if it should be only conditionally accepted, this should be centrally documented here). In turn, before accepting packages from the queue, release team members need to check the pad before accepting any CD-affecting packages. While there will still be a daily sync point available for discussion on #ubuntu-release, this should enable us to get release work done the rest of the day while still enabling everyone on the team to have a consistent overview of the state of the release without having to sift through #ubuntu-release scrollback. Hopefully this approach works for everyone :) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
