Hi everyone,

It was a very very long day waiting for this moment :)

Thank you!

Hi Lance,

 

Regarding the Release Notes this bug has been fixed:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1262841

But I don't know who fixed it or specifically when or how it was fixed.

Myself and Tim have reviewed the release notes before 6 hours or so from releasing Beta 1.
If you check the 'status' of that report, it is still saying: 'New' :)

As long as it doesn't say "Fix Released", we can't really mark that as solved/fixed on the release notes. This is AFAIK :)

 

OTOH this new bug was not mentioned:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1284017

I spoke of that on the mailing list here:

https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntugnome-qa/msg00367.html

Yes, I'm aware of that and have seen your email :)

I wasn't too sure to include that one for the same reason as status is still 'new' and yes, I can see it is assigned to:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=724930

If that must be mentioned, please let me know :)
 

Sorry to be a pain but I was almost the only one to report test results on the QA Tracker during this test cycle - that is not sustainable because I'm old & feeble minded.

Not at all. You're not a pain, you're a great help to Ubuntu GNOME QA Team.

We highly appreciate your efforts. And we're sorry if we added an extra burden on your shoulders.

 

It seems that our "recruitment efforts" have had a negative rather than positive effect on particiption so we may want to re-think our efforts in that regard.

Maybe we sometimes come across as demanding too much from the members that already participate and then they drop out altogether :^(

IMHO, we didn't fail nor did a negative thing. If you look at this:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugnome-qa

And all the other sub-teams of Ubuntu GNOME, all are still new and almost 6 months old or even newer. We can't expect a huge success right from the beginning. I don't call it a negative effect at all. We are all learning. If we won't fail, we will never be succeeded :) 

I keep silent sometimes but I do take notes. I have addressed the mistakes myself and others have made during this cycle for all the sub-teams. Next cycle, things won't be the same hopefully :)

We were late with lots of things. And you need to trust me in this. I am not going to give up on Ubuntu GNOME and things with time should be better. It is just about time.

I look at the overall great achievements we have made. Let's look at the full half ;)

 

Lance

Your efforts are highly appreciated. Don't ever think being old is a negative thing. It is a very positive thing. You're wise + experienced. What could be better than this? :D

Take care, my friend and keep up the great work!
