Hi,
Tomorrow Linaro will release the Alpha-1 images. In anticipation of this
the release candidate has been produced and is ready for testing. If you
have supported hardware and are willing to test please head on over to:
http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n
and select an image type. Please take the files from the alpha-1-rc
directory and combine them with a alpha-1-rc hardware pack from the
hwpack directory at the same location. Instructions on how to do this
can be found at:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/MilestoneBuilds
The QA tool, qatracker, has been setup ready for test results and can be
found at:
http://qatracker.linaro.org
and instructions on how to test are available on the wiki at:
http://wiki.linaro.org/QA/QATracker
Alpha-1 is a very early snapshot of Linaro's development progress for
the 11.04 release. It *will* contain bugs but with the help of our
testers, these bugs will be squished as the development cycle
progresses.
Regards,
Jamie.

the calls, along with slides, recordings of all previous calls and links
to meeting minutes are available here:

Hello there,
Starting next Monday, Linaro tech leads will be running a set of
public phone calls to announce the official plans for each of our
engineering units. Calls are daily at 15:00 UTC, and there are local and
free dial-in numbers for most countries around the world. The schedule
and details are listed here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/1105/PublicPlanReview
The objective of these calls is to communicate and clarify the plan for
each of our engineering units. Each unit will provide a set of slides
discussing features planned and the blueprints that specify and track
them. Anyone in the wider ARM or embedded Linux community is invited to
come and you're welcome to extend this offer to your contacts.
These calls are open to the general public; anybody is welcome to dial
in and listen. Questions can be asked via IRC using #linaro-meeting on
Freenode; details on how to access IRC itself are also linked to from
that page.
Calls will also be recorded and available for later perusal. I'll send
out a daily reminder of the calls so you won't miss them if you keep an
eye out for the messages.
Thanks and see you there!
