The Linaro 15.12 release is now available for download!
A very short cycle, as expected, which I'll match with this short release note.
Using the Android-based images
=======================
The Android-based images come in three parts: system, userdata and boot.
These need to be combined to form a complete Android install. For an
explanation of how to do this please see:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/ImageInstallation
If you are interested in getting the source and building these images
yourself please see the following pages:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/GetSourcehttp://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/BuildSource
Using the OpenEmbedded-based images
=======================
With the Linaro provided downloads and with ARM’s Fast Models virtual
platform, you can boot a virtual ARMv8 system and run 64-bit binaries.
For more information please see:
http://www.linaro.org/engineering/armv8
Using the Ubuntu-based images
=======================
The Ubuntu-based images consist of two parts. The first part is a
hardware pack, which can be found under the hwpacks directory and
contains hardware specific packages (such as the kernel and bootloader).
The second part is the rootfs, which is combined with the hardware pack
to create a complete image. For more information on how to create an
image please see:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/DevPlatform/Ubuntu/ImageInstallation

The Linaro 15.11 release is now available for download!
This is the penultimate release for 2011! The big surprise for this
release is a set of Debian 8.2 (Jessie) rootfses as well as a prebuilt
image for Snapdragon based boards. We have both 'ALIP' and 'developer'
flavours available for armhf and aarch64. Since they are generated the
same way as the ubuntu images, so follow those instructions below if
you want to use them.

"Once a word has been allowed to escape, it cannot be recalled."
~ Horace, Epistles
The Linaro 15.10 release is now available for download!
There are some exciting changes this cycle! The ubuntu images now have 64-bit
counterparts available and LCR has 'M' builds available, for Juno it's an
engineering preview but for the other platforms it's a regular release.
For OpenEmbedded the aarch64 kernel moved from 3.10 to 3.18 and has a few more
systemd related options enabled. The images themselves have also switched to
systemd for init and networking. This has led to a number of regressions, but
last minute fixes allow the images to boot into a shell and execute LAVA tests.
While technically not part of a release, it does warrant an extra mention:
Old releases have been archived.
>From https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-release/2015-October/000472.html:
"As part of BB-149 old releases have been moved to
http://releases.linaro.org/archive/. 'Old' meaning 2011, 2012 and
2013.
The first reports of things breaking are tricking in, OpenWRT
apparently uses binutils-linaro 13.05 and Fathi mentioned that various
LAVA health checks are failing now. If you encounter such an issue,
add the 'archive/' bit to the URL, e.g.
sed -i -e s:org/13:org/archive/13:g \
-e s:org/12:org/archive/12:g \
-e s:org/11:org/archive/11:g <your text files>
We of course recommend trying out more recent releases for current
projects, but if you can't upgrade the archive is there to stay."

I have no idea, someone showed up on IRC and said openWRT needed it.

Hi,
As part of BB-149 old releases have been moved to
http://releases.linaro.org/archive/. 'Old' meaning 2011, 2012 and
2013.
The first reports of things breaking are tricking in, OpenWRT
apparently uses binutils-linaro 13.05 and Fathi mentioned that various
LAVA health checks are failing now. If you encounter such an issue,
add the 'archive/' bit to the URL, e.g.
sed -i -e s:org/13:org/archive/13:g -e s:org/12:org/archive/12:g -e
s:org/11:org/archive/11:g <your text files>
We of course recommend trying out more recent releases for current
projects, but if you can't upgrade the archive is there to stay.

The Linaro 15.07 release is now available for download!
For this cycle we've moved to a new layout for the releases.linaro.org
server to make it easier to navigate between different versions of
components. Instead of having a top level version like
'15.07/openembedded/aarch64' we now have a bottom level version like
'openembedded/aarch64/15.07'.
The toplevel 'latest' symlink has also changed to bottom level, so
'openembedded/aarch64/latest' will always point to the latest version.
This fixes the inaccurate 'latest' link for components that aren't on
a monthly cycle.
See the detailed highlights of this release to get an overview of what
has been accomplished by the Working Groups, Landing Teams and Automation & CI
Teams:

Using the Ubuntu-based images
=======================
The Ubuntu-based images consist of two parts. The first part is a
hardware pack, which can be found under the hwpacks directory and
contains hardware specific packages (such as the kernel and bootloader).
The second part is the rootfs, which is combined with the hardware pack
to create a complete image. For more information on how to create an
image please see:
