This conversation is hilarious. People in a team that calls itself the "Quality Assurance" team, debating how (or whether?) to link bugs to the 100papercuts project, and in the meantime thousands of people are upgrading Ubuntu to a new release which apparently will just brick their computer because it wasn't seriously tested before being released. And that having been known for days, while the bug causing that is still being fixed (or just figured out), not only the release hasn't been withheld, but no workaround (which apparently exists) has even been posted to the bug report about the issue causing the disaster (which would be of little help but would at least be something).
Excellent "quality assurance" effort. I correct myself: this *would be* hilarious, if it wasn't sad.
