Hi,
This is a message is a call for testing as the 11.07 RC is fast approach. There needs to be a special focus on the new elements that have been integrated in the builds since the last call for testing. Please try out the latest Linaro Evaluation Builds (LEBs) images for both Android and Linux. As always log your results in qatracker.linaro.org. Even if you're only able to test one image/hwpack combination, your participation is greatly appreciated and essential.
The plan from here to the 11.07 release as I understand is as follows: 7/18 (TODAY) - Issue new call for testing 7/21 - 11.07 New Function Freeze 7/22 - 11.07 RC Release 7/28 - 11.07 Release
Changelog -------------- 7-14 to 7-18 * x-loader: - New upstream release - 1.5.1 - Fixes to make USB EHCI to work properly on Panda * u-boot-linaro: - New upstream release - 2011.07.1 - PXE FDT fix from previous ubuntu release so patch has been removed - Added missing PXE env vars (LP: #808815) - Generated unique usbethaddr (LP: #809015) - Modify pxe command to look for usbethaddr if ethaddr is NULL * libjpeg-turbo: - New upstream release - 1.1.1 - Replacing libjpeg62 at all Linaro images * base-files: - Should now show itself as 11.07 (development branch)
