Hash: SHA1
Hello Fellows,

|October 5, 2008 |planned release date |
+-------------------+----------------------------------------------+
Releases at: October 5, 2008
Needed days: 38
For the ones who are looking carefully, will notice that we are not
going to have a period of testing of images. That is going to be done
since we'll change, for this release, the way we'll be doing tests.
Since Lenny and installer are frozen, the number of changes are rather
small and dailies and weekly builds will be taken as testing images. A
call for testing will be send to debian-devel-announce and beta2
images will be deprecated on installer webpage. Doing that, any
noticed bug or regression will be fixed and tested fastly and give us
more speed at this final stage of development of Lenny installer.
We need that sparc porters do the upload of 2.6.26 kernel packages.
The alpha, hppa, ia64, s390 and sparc porters need to upload the
modules packages too so we have the whole installer up to date
regarting the kernel support.
Once 2.6.26-4 binaries gets installed in all architectures, I'll do a
massupload and send the call for testing.
Cheers,
