UDS-Q reminder

This is reminder about *UDS* (Ubuntu Developer Summit). Most of you know about it already: it's a five-day event, happens at the beginning of each cycle with the goal of bringing together Canonical staff, Ubuntu contributors and users, partners, etc to plan for the upcoming release. You can real all about it at *http://uds.ubuntu.com*

The tracks are listed at *http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/tracks* and, as you can see, there's a *QA Track* at *http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/track/qa/*. There an *Etherpad* instance for each meeting, as way to allow for remote participation. A good example is this one: *http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/meeting/20464/qa-q-community/* .

You can also participate via Live Audio/Video streams. See all the options at *http://uds.ubuntu.com/community/remote-participation/*

Last piece of info: Take a look at this blueprint: *https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/other-q-prior-release-feedback* ("Feedback on Precise Release and Improvements). You can (and are encouraged to) add your comments to the ongoing discussion. It's an opportunity to express your opinions.

Hey guys -- consider this my personal invite to participate in UDS :-)

This UDS is going to be filled with lots of good discussion around quality. Now is the time to contribute your thoughts and opinions on quality efforts. Do you have feedback about the calls for testing or perhaps iso testing? Have an idea on how to engage with more people? Do you wish QA would adopt a specific tool? Check out the blueprints here and plan to attend in person or via IRC.

If your unable to attend, please feel free to add your thoughts to the blueprints respective whiteboard / etherpad. When commenting, prefixing your name before the comment so we can attribute the contribution to you is helpful. For example:

[nskaggs] This is my comment.

All comments are appreciated and encouraged. I need everyone to show up and speak up. I know many of you have some great ideas and now is the time to give your ideas life and recruit people to join in to make it happen! Thanks for your participation everyone and let's have a wonderful UDS and 12.10 cycle.

Hello Team!

I'm at UDS, typing this in the community round table...if anyone else is here, look for the guy named "domino";)

Should any of you see this post, please write your concerns in regards to bridging the community with the developers.

Peace.
