Archive frozen for preparation of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Published by

The Ubuntu Archive has been frozen for the upcoming release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
We are one week out from the 10.04 LTS release candidate and two weeks from the final release, so as many of you have probably already noticed, the archive is now frozen and will not thaw again before release.

During the freeze, all uploads to main must be approved by a member of the release team, so if you have fixes that are important to get in and will need discussion, please do get in touch as soon as possible. Uploads to main should at this point focus on release-critical bugs only.

See the previous message for more information about this process:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2010-April/000705.html

The list of release-critical bugs that we want to still try to resolve before the release candidate on April 22 is tracked here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+bugs?field.milestone=21439

Additional bugs that are still considered "targets of opportunity" for the release are found at:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+bugs

If you have bugs which you believe should be listed there but aren't yet, please get in touch with me or another member of the release team.

In addition, Lucas Nussbaum has helpfully been providing a list of packages that fail to build in Lucid. Please help us to make 10.04 LTS the best release possible by pitching in to resolve these build failures:
