If your name is in the table above, please review your final Oneiric work items.

=== Status: General Oneiric  ===
We uploaded the 3.0.0-12.19 Ubuntu kernel last friday.  We are nearing Final Freeze \
for Oneiric this Thurs, Sept 29.  Only high/critical issues which are deemed \
necessary for the release will warrant an upload at this time.  Because we are in \
Kernel  Freeze, all patches are subject to our SRU policy in order to be applied.
Some important upcoming dates to keep in mind are as follows:
  * Sept 29 - Final Freeze (2 days)
  *  Oct  6 - Release Candidate (~1 week)
  *  Oct 13 - Final Release (~2 weeks)
I would also like to note that the P-series git repo has been rebased to v3.1-rc7 and \
is available on the master-next branch at git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-p.git \
.

=== Status: CVE's  ===
Currently open CVEs for each supported branch:

One additional CVE was added this week and all CVEs with fixes are now closed out.  \
We have referred two of the Hardy CVEs which have very large patch stacks back to the \
security team for review.

=== Status: Stable, Security, and Bugfix Kernel Updates - Natty/Maverick/Lucid/Hardy  \
=== ==== Status of kernels ====

  An i915 graphics regression was discovered in Natty which was released in -updates.
  The offending patch has been identified and will be reverted in the next Natty
  kernel. Work is under way with upstream to come up with a new fix to add external
  monitor plug support without regressions. The bugs open for this regression are:
  * [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/838181|External monitor \
                connected trough . . .]]
  * [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/814325|fuzzy and corrupted \
display after dpms cycles]]

  SRU kernel status:
  * [[http://people.canonical.com/~kernel/reports/kernel-sru-workflow.html|Kernel SRU \
                Workflow Status]]
  * [[http://people.canonical.com/~kernel/reports/sru-report.html|Detailed \
Information Here]]

  Kernel status for each series is as follows:

===== Hardy =====
  * [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/853945|Hardy Tracking \
                Bug]]
  * Currently undergoing regression testing

===== Lucid =====
  * [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/849228|Lucid Tracking \
                Bug]]
  * Awaiting publishing to -updates and -security

===== Maverick =====
  * [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/854092|Maverick Tracking \
                Bug]]
  * In testing Phase. Undergoing regression testing, needs Certification testing

===== Natty =====
  * In preparation, should be in Verification phase by the end of this week

  Current Kernel versions are available here: \
