We're currently running 5 to 8 days behind schedule for some items.
After dinstall today we should be ready to begin building the
debian-installer packages. I'm tracking status of release blockers and
other important issues in the wiki:
http://wiki.debian.net/?DebianInstallerRC3Prep
Here's an updated timeline. Note that the merging of updates to the
sarge branch in svn is put on March 8th only because I won't be doing it
before then, but if someone else wants to work on doing that before,
that would be great.
1 Mar arrive at final go/no-go list for which udebs will be updated in rc3
2 Mar rc3 udebs synced to testing (some rc2 images may break)
3 Mar debs that were waiting on rc3 reach testing
(parted, debootstrap)
finish all needed changes to debian-installer package
(manual, build system)
4 Mar most udeb sources updated
5 Mar base-installer uploaded, waiting on all builds <--(you are here)
final (initrd) debs reach testing by dinstall
begin debian-installer package test build
8 Mar merge updates to sarge branch of svn repository, where necessary
powerpc 2.4 kernel deb is in testing
10 Mar debian-installer test build finishes (approximate)
test period
14 Mar final deadline for emergency udeb changes for rc3 (optional)
begin final debian-installer package build (optional)
18 Mar final debian-installer package build complete (optional)
