According to the schedule, the archive will freeze for Beta 2 on March 28th:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaringRingtail/ReleaseSchedule I think it would be prudent to plan on having it all landed in the archive prior to that time. That includes New reviews for new packages and rebuilds/ builds of reverse dependencies. As there appear to be a non-trivial number of new packages involved, finding archive administrators with the time to get proper reviews done can be a challenge. I recommend you start work now to get people to block out time: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-archive/+members#active You'll need time for the packages to be uploaded, reviewed, any reject worthy issue corrected, re-uploaded, re-reviewed, accepted, built, MIR'ed, and added to the appropriate install media. I think your offer on screen shots is most relevant to the docs team. I'd recommend you contact them on their mailing list to discuss how you can support their efforts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gwibber in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1154229 Title: [FFE] New Unity Dash Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “libunity” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity-lens-applications” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity-lens-files” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity-lens-music” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity-lens-photos” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity-lens-shopping” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity-scope-gdrive” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: A new version of Unity's Dash, libunity APIs, the default and new "100 scopes", with a target date of March 25th for landing in Raring. The rest of Unity (Launcher, Indicators, HUD, etc) will not be affected. For reference, the new "smart scope service" and corresponding Unity changes was discussed here: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2013/01/30/smart- scopes/ The spec for the "smart scope service" is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SmartScopes1304Spec The goal is to have everything ready by the 25th March. Until then, a ppa will be updated everyday for testing the feature by a group of 5 people (the ppa will be: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-unity/+archive /experimental-certified). Existing tests will be run as per of the daily release process. That + the manual testing, we'll have a good pick on the quality status before flipping the switch. All packages will be prereviewed for NEWing and MIRing.
