Hi folks,

whilst the chat in IRC was okay, the actual problem still remains.

The spins are coming too fast, unannounced.  If they are pre-announced,
then I can wait for them to come.  If they hit in the middle of a test,
then I lose the ability to update or complete the test and all that time
goes for nothing.  Is there a way to get more of a heads-up for pending
spins and ISO images?

I get mail when the spins are ready and that works fine, for the most
part, but today the test case web page was locked up for editing for a
while when I still had some tests outstanding.  So there was a period of
a few hours where I could not test as scheduled.  The test cases where
(are) labelled "This is a legacy testcase..."

IMHO, this is a serious bug. If our testers become disheartned then we have
a major problem.

The testers MUST be told what is going on, we KNOW that there will be a
respin [1]
All it takes is to let the testers know WHEN :)


Communicate to your testers, I am only speaking for Lubuntu, but I'm sure
other testiing
teams would appreciate such information.
