=== Status: Saucy Development Kernel ===
We have decided to target the v3.11 kernel for Saucy. As such, we have
uploaded a new Saucy kerel based on the v3.11-rc5 upstream kernel.
We'll continue following the -rc and final releases for v3.11 and plan
to pick up the extended upstream stable maintenance for the duration of
Saucy's support cycle.
-----
Additionally, I want to point out that the 12.04.3 point release is
approaching on Thurs Aug 22, ie ~1 week from now. Only the most
critical of bug fixes would warrant a respin at this time.
-----
Lastly, I wanted to add a reminder that Virtual UDS is 2 weeks away, Aug
27-29. If there are important topics neeing discussed be sure to file a
blueprint and get a session scheduled. I'll likely only plan on holding
a single generic kernel catch-all session.

Thurs Aug 29 - Beta 1 freeze (~2 weeks away)
Thurs Sep 05 - Beta 1 (~3 weeks away)
