Cool! I just wanted everyone to know that my lack of testing was beyond my control. I think we need to somehow recruit more dedicated iso-testers, does anyone have a suggestion how we'd accomplish that?

I noticed reviewing the most recent daily tests that the boss himself ran a bunch of tests. While that's cool I'm sure he's a busy man :^)

We shouldn't fall into a hole like this when one of us in unable to test. I do try to promote Lubuntu while it's in development:

Any thoughts about recruiting iso-testers?

Hi Lance,
I know how frustrating losing i/net connectivity is, it's happened to me in the past. The testing of the Beta 2 will commence on the evening (UTC time) of Monday 25th March for completion approx 17:00 UTC on Thursday 28th March. The alternates for i386 made it okay for Beta 1 [1], but the desktops had not been fully tested. 

As and when people get chance, they can check the daily releases [2] to close the 'gaps' shown in [1] so that there are no 'nasty' surprises in store.
Just to complete the remaining schedule, the Release Candidate is due out on the evening (UTC) of Thursday 18th April, with Final Release due during the early afternoon (UTC) of Thursday 25th April.

Regards,
Phill.1. http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/261/builds2. http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/243/builds

Sorry I missed Beta 1 testing, I was certainly ready to take on the i386 live and alternate images but my internet went down Monday afternoon and AT&T couldn't get someone out here to fix things until late yesterday :^(




I was forced to change from AT&T DSL to U-verse on Feb 19th and things were rocky at first, but then had seemed to improve for several days, then things just quit altogether.



No one was more frustrated than myself. I was certainly less than polite in some of my dealings with AT&T this past week.



Anyway I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they actually have this fixed now. Dumb question, are we scheduled for a Beta 2 on the 4th?
