Ubuntu Release Blog

One week away from the Ubuntu 9.10 Beta release, the archive is now in hard freeze for preparation of that Beta.

During the freeze, all uploads to main must be approved by a member of the
release team, so if you have fixes which are important to get in, please get in touch as soon as possible (and preferably, get your packages uploaded in parallel!). Uploads to universe require a manual push through the queue, but are not subject to release management approval.

Full details can be found in the mailing list archive.

Karmic alpha 6 is coming out this week, and to get us there, the soft freeze is now in effect for main. Please be considerate with your uploads, and watch for any release blocker bugs.

Karmic alpha 5 is due this Thursday, so the soft freeze is now in effect for main. Please be considerate with your uploads, and watch for any release blocker bugs.
