MOTU Release done for Karmic

[Scott Kitterman-3]

The final deadline for motu-release approved uploads has passed.  We had a
good run of fixing the last few days.  Thanks everyone for the work.

In the event of any OMG, kittens! issues for Universe/Multiverse, please
contact ubuntu-release.

Congratulations and well done to everyone involved. Special mention to our
brave release managers :)

How about a MOTU Lucid planning meeting? We've attempted to organise
ourselves a bit recently but the meetings have not happened. I suggest
Thursday 05 November, 1800UTC.

Regards,
Iain

Is there a way we could speed up SRUs for the next week?  As I
understand it the current process requires uploading the package to
Lucid before backporting the fix.

Does this mean updates are going to be impossible until Lucid is
available?  I have a package ready to go into -proposed today, however
if I have to wait until Lucid is open to upload that could be much longer.

Thanks,
Scott Ritchie

If you have an SRU which meets the criteria, and a bug prepared
accordingly (justification, ubuntu-sru subscribed, etc.), please
upload it. The queue is open, and I'll process them as fast as
possible right after release.

Right after the release bugs can't be fixed in the dev release first
obviously. We will just create lucid tasks and then binary copy the
karmic-proposed updates to lucid once it opens, so don't worry about
that.

For Universe, motu-sru is also already approving things.

I assume it will be handled like in the past: you can upload to
-proposed now and once lucid opens you can catch up with fixing it in
lucid too.

To speed that up, I just finished to review the current queue (from
the bottom up to "kdebindings" at the time of this writing), and
prepared everything in advance, so after karmic's release I just need
to press a few buttons to move them all in.
