Hello again, Due to a major bug in ubiquity 2.3.18 [1] we need to hold the pairwise testing until Evan uploads a new ubiquity and generate new ISOs.
I have set the builds in the pairwise tracker [2] as "rebuilding" to avoid confusion. I will follow up this email when everything is ready. And yes, this bug was a great example of why testing ubiquity prior to a milestone testing cycle is a good idea ;-) Cheers, Ara.
