Hi,
A little bit later than usual, but here it goes the announcement of the 12.03 RC images. This time we got a bit delayed because we're finally generating and maintaining all the kernel packages ourself, and getting them in sync with Launchpad is something that still needs some improvement.
This release should be the last one based on Ubuntu Oneiric (and ARMEL), including the latest XBMC release and the usual kernel and package updates. From 12.04 on we will be supporting only builds based on Ubuntu Precise (12.04, ARMHF), so we should see quite many nice improvements there (for early access, check the builds at https://ci.linaro.org/jenkins/view/Ubuntu%20Build%20Service/).
You can find our current test cases at https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/QA/TestCases/Ubuntu, and the 12.03 RC builds (for all boards and image flavors) at http://snapshots.linaro.org/oneiric/, with build id 20120327-1 for hwpacks and 20120327-0 for the rootfs (nano, developer, alip, ubuntu-desktop and linaro-tv-xbmc).
For our main boards we also have a testing spreadsheet, were we publish the official release testing, done by the dev platform engineers. You can find the links at https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/DevPlatform/Testing (note that you can find the bug reports from the test cases by looking at the QA page tag links).
Fathi will be coordinating all respin requests in the next following days at linaro-release m-l, and the final image will be published this thursday, at releases.linaro.org.
Please also be sure to publish any bug report with the RC images against https://launchpad.net/linaro-ubuntu, or just contact us at #linaro @ freenode.
Thanks,
