njinhallo, there someone testing amd64 desktop today ?14:29
smartboyhwNo:)14:30
jamespagesmartboyhw, a *polite* pointer in the correct direction is often better for those who are a little lost....14:31
smartboyhwjamespage: I am being polite14:32
jamespagesmartboyhw, "Oh my god, go to #ubuntu, this is for testing" is not that polite IMHO14:33
smartboyhw...14:33
jamespagejibel: I expect that you are about to get real busy with beta-1 testing; can we grab some time next week to discuss upgrade testing for server?14:38
jamespageI've identified a few cases where we would benefit from better upgrade testing and I'd like to understand how to get it setup.14:38
