Hi folks,

apologies for the zero notice on this, I was part way through drafting
something up when I got distracted over our test-cases!

I've attached the ether-pad (in html format to preserve the links) which
has the various links on it for Cadence testing. It was agreed that we will
do Fri - Thur testing instead of Sun - Sat in order not to split a weekend
up.

To surmise, cadence testing will last for 7 days and be carried out
fortnightly - as you can see from the attached document, Nicholas has some
tasks to carry out to ready the wiki area for the calendar / reporting etc.
It makes good sense for us to follow what 'main' Ubuntu are doing in terms
of testing time tables and with cadence we do not have the mad scurry to
get milestone releases out early in the cycle. During cadence the daily
images will continue to be built and simply replace the cadence version on
the iso tracker - So, it will be important to zsync before doing testing.

Cadence was 'beta' tested by Ubuntu in the 'Q' cycle and the lessons
learned are to be applied for 'R'. If you good people who do the grunt work
of the testing have any questions do please ask (and I'll go ask Nicholas
:P ).

Regards,

Phill.
