We've rebased the Quantal kernel to upstream v3.4 final and uploaded. This upload collapses the -virtual flavor, reinstates the i386 generic flavor, and transitions the i386 generic-pae flavor to the generic flavor. We've also homogenized the entire linux-meta package and removed the non-smp powerpc meta package as it was made obsolete in Precise. Last week we uploaded the 3.4.0-3.8 Quantal kernel which was based on the final v3.4 upstream kernel. This upload also included an updated AppArmor patch set, misc config updates, and bug fixes. We've continued to homogenize the Quantal kernel config this week and will intend to upload these latest changes no later than Monday. This upcoming upload will be what we intend to ship for the Alpha-1 release.

We've also got the 12.10 kernel for 12.04 available for testing. It can be installed from the following PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/q-lts-backport

We welcome any early adopters to please install, test, and let us know your feedback.
We are above the trend line for our Alpha-1 burn down chart and a few items will be deferred to the Alpha-2 milestone.

We anticipate the upstream v3.5-rc1 kernel to release relatively soon. Being the first rc for the 3.5 series, I'd expect it to be less stable. We would of course appreciate any testing and feedback once it is uploaded and available. We anticipate the upstream v3.5-rc1 kernel to release relatively soon. We will hold uploading a v3.5 based kernel until after the Alpha-1 milestone.

What was done engineering wise?

Last week we uploaded the 3.4.0-3.8 Quantal kernel which was based on the final v3.4 upstream kernel. This upload also included an updated AppArmor patch set, misc config updates, and bug fixes. We've continued to homogenize the Quantal kernel config this week and will intend to upload these latest changes no later than Monday. This upcoming upload will be what we intend to ship for the Alpha-1 release.

We are above the trend line for our Alpha-1 burn down chart and a few items will be deferred to the Alpha-2 milestone.

What's about to land that might impact the other teams and release as a whole?

We anticipate the upstream v3.5-rc1 kernel to release relatively soon. We will hold uploading a v3.5 based kernel until after the Alpha-1 milestone.
