Subject: Quantal Daily ISO Testing for Alpha One
To: ubuntu-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


 The Alpha One milestone is quickly approaching us. Starting next Monday
the first images will be generated for the milestone and we'll begin
milestone testing. As a pre-cursor to that testing, we are looking to test
now and report issues in advance. The goal is to run a daily of your iso
sometime in the week before the milestone image is built to find any issues
before the intense milestone testing, so that respins and major issues can
be avoided. Take the time this week to grab a daily of your adopted iso and
report results! Many thanks to those folks who have already done so (thank
you gwjvan and cpatrick08, and others I may have missed).

If you haven't subscribed to be informed about new builds for your iso,
please do so. It will help keep you informed next week as we do the iso
testing for the milestone. Here's a few links that may come in useful for
you:

I can highly recommend zsync and, if your testing must occur in a VM,
testdrive. Zsync makes it easy to keep your isos up-to-date without having
to re-download them.

As always, happy testing everyone! Remember Alpha One is an upgrade time
for many of the folks who like to live on the bleeding edge. Let's make
sure our images let them join us in Quantal fun :-)

Nicholas
