Whiteboard changed:
  Agenda:
  * current release process - what's the current process?

+ Current Release Process
+ 
+ Monthly
+ Last Thursday of the month
+ 
+ How do we decide what goes into the release?
+ 
+ How do we communicate which patches have landed?
+     Track which patches have actually landed in the tip?
+     
+ CI works if we fix things when they break
+     Android has to rebase each day for some repos, kernel gets rebased
+ 
+ Need to track Linus-HEAD and Deepak-HEAD
+ 
+ AI: Deepak: What does Linux Linaro's kernel need to be
+ AI: Ricardo: Discuss Linus HEAD, Linus NEXT
+ AI: <platform team>: kernel flows docs
+ AI: Zach: 
+ AI: Deepak: Will look at each kernel that we ship and say which patches made it in
+ 
+ Release Internals
+ 
+ Planning, Post-mortum
+    Essential and High and committed to be delivered

+    A few things
+       Planning takes too long
+           Expectation: Post-mortum on Friday 23:59 UTC
+               Plan is available on Monday UTC 23:59
+               You should have the backlog sorted by priority
+           Should happen on Mumble not IRC
+ 
+     QA Testing
+         Happens on release
+         Android has a QA engineer
+         Need to test components
+         Components needed
+         Release checkpoint shipped along with components
+ 
+ AI: asac: will drive test standardization across the industry.
+ 
+ CI
