Hey,

Not a lot of news today, continuing prioritizing SRU (and we got a bunch 
approved) until utopic opens! Everything is ready and we will get soon a 
new Mir fixing the Qt event (and so alarm issue) on utopic channel! As 
told yesterday, we will cut an image as soon as most of the SRUs are 
moving to -updates.


* Important bugs to look at:
** Music/Calendar bug (Qt event loop stopping when the device is 
suspend) (Kevin)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1292306
-> The fix will be in the incoming tagged Mir release. Some regressions 
were discussed and they seem acceptable (list is at 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/+bugs?field.searchtext=nonblockswap)

** New scopes performance needs to be improved (Kevin for unity8 and 
Thomas for unity-scopes-shell)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8/+bug/1297197
This explains most of the chopiness and some temporary lagginess we have 
seen in the Unity 8 UI past weeks with the new scopes (frames skipped 
while scrolling scopes and when switching between scopes).
-> We got some fixes in #301 which got the situation better.
Thomas' team is going to look at the scope-shell side of it. The unity8 
team is refactoring quite some code for the UI side.


* Issues not impacting on the user experience:
** qtubuntu crash causing the dialer app to crash (only during tests) 
(Bill)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtubuntu/+bug/1297900
-> Boiko has a branch for it which needs to be released once ready.
-> It seems it's still not there, Bill, any news?

** Clock flaky test (Julien, Bill)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+bug/1307458
-> Leo wasn't able to reproduce it despite multiple try. The autopilot 
team will invest in video recording of failing tests which should give a 
hint for later.

** New dialer-app flaky test (Julien, Bill)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/dialer-app/+bug/1303681
-> another flaky test appeared as well last week (added to the same bug, 
Lukasz analyzed and think it's the same). Upstream thinks it's due to 
the dialer-app crashes and are working on it.

** Autopilot test flakyness in test_add_photo (Julien, Bill)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/gallery-app/+bug/1304950
-> Chris Gagnon has started to refactor and clean up the gallery tests.

Cheers,
Didier
