Hi,

According to the Linaro release process [1] the maverick-proposed queue will be frozen tomorrow. After this date no uploads should be accepted for -proposed until the queue unfreezes on 8th November 2010 without consultation with the Linaro release team [2]. The total freeze time will be 12 days.

The freeze process was agreed at the platform sprint in Prague and has benefits for both Ubuntu and Linaro. This period should be used to flush the -proposed queue, testing, verifying and promoting to maverick-updates what is currently there. If you have an update that really must be added to the queue in the next 12 days please email the team[3] for feedback.

The Linaro Release Candidate images will be created on the 1st November and the images will be verified until Final Release on the 10th November.

With your help we can get the -proposed queue flushed and produce rock-solid Linaro images, carrying the great work Ubuntu has done to more ARM based platforms.

Regards, Jamie. -- Linaro Release Manager
