> Folks, I guess this is important enough for me pinging you. Below is
> the Debian Installer beta4 release schedule, so please organise your
> own schedule (and your team's schedule) for having something ready for
> beta4.
>
> We will have a string freeze this time, though it may be a bit loose
> (changes related to ports will be allowed). So, you will have time but
> you will need some close attention to status pages anyway.
>
> The last week-end of April will be the "hot" week-end for d-i translators.
>
> As informal coordinator for l10n, I will unfortuntely be away for
> holidays, so no way to keep an eye on all this.

>
> 1-16 april development and porting
>
> We're in this period now.
>
> 17-22 april string freeze; general development slowdown; porting continues
>
> We'll need to slow down on general development (in trunk, anyway) during
> this period, and begin to look at stabilising the installer. A lot of
> stuff has been breaking, and making things harder for porters. Porting
> will continue during this time period (might include 2.6 porting), and
> porters can break the string freeze if necessary.
>
> 23 april upload translated udebs to archive
> 24 april last possible changes to udebs on initrds
> 25 april initrd builds
> 26 april initrd builds continue (slow autobuilders)
> 27 april cd building, testing
> 28 april release beta 4

> We passed a nice milestone earlier this week, when the d-i images
> autobuilt for 10 architectures. The lone failure was on powerpc, which
> is due to problems with the autobuilder, not us.
>
> We've now had recent success reports for all architectures except hppa
> and s390. Arm and mipsel are notable additions. Hppa is blocked by a
> libc bug (though there's a workaround), and a lack of people working on
> it (right now). S390 is still blocked by parted.

>
> Of our errata for beta 3, the following are still problems to be best of
> my knowledge, and need to be fixed soon:
>
> - hardware raid problems (probably fixed, but as of yet, unverified)
> - alpha cannot install from SCSI cdrom
> - ia64 netboot installs broken
> - sparc CDs broken
> - Arabic and Hebrew display problems (progress has been made)
>
> Of the other possible goals for this release, these remain undone:
>
> - use the new boot logo (needs to have the sarge version number fixed)
> - a less intimidating grub install screen
> - 2.6 kernel support
