Hi lubuntueers,

I'm sending this to the full list as some of you are waiting to join
testing.

Rafael has gotten a workaround for the problem where you could not read the
text on the dark screen [1] Yes, a lot of midnight oil burned, he has
gotten a patch made, Julien has got it uploaded and our new friend skaet
has been true to their word and has issued the re-spin command for the
entire lubuntu suite.

As I write this, the new test iso's for the beta1 are arriving on
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/208/builds

I, and the QA team realise that is a nigh on impossible task for them all
to be tested before beta 1 RC freeze, but can I ask that you go 'hug' an RC
and confirm that this major bug is solved. We still have time to get the
theme back to our usual standards, it is more important whilst this is done
that we ensure there are no further gremlins hiding behind the dark screen.

As of now, there is the issue of ppc not installing on G3 Macs, we need
that verifying. A "Fail to install" is the worst bug that is possible.
After it installs, we can go bug fix :)

Oh, there is no rush... we need the results in by 12:00 UTC March 2012 -
Just check the 'artwork' on install works and report it back. Even by
replying by email to this thread will let us know if Beta 1 can proceed.
Yes, not the usual way of approving an RC and one we hope never to need
again.

Regards,

Phill.
