Dear Release Team, Further to discussion at the Technical Board meeting earlier[1], I'm resurrecting this old thread.
You can find the original thread (just two posts) at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2023-December/005858.html and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2023-December/005859.html In the past, there was overlap between Technical Board members and Release Team members. This time, there isn't[2]. So we're now in a position where it doesn't seem like we're in a good position to make these kinds of decisions without more formal involvement from Release Team members. The action item the new Technical Board got passed was: "follow up on the Cinnamon 24.04 LTS Qualification to ensure the listed contacts can action the flavor". That might no longer be relevant (is it?), but the general case still is. Please could the current release team consider how they want to operate with respect to this class of decision? I'll reply to the thread separately with my personal opinion in response to Steve's reply. Thanks, Robie [1] https://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-meeting/2025/ubuntu-meeting.2025-03-11-20.00.log.htm://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-meeting/2025/ubuntu-meeting.2025-03-11-20.00.log.html#l-133 [2] FWIW, I think it's fine: TB members should be able to understand and decide upon deep technical matters, but don't need to be an expert in everything. The need for expertise should be delegated to dedicated specialist teams, such as the Release Team.
