<pre wrap="">During the last 24h a new iso for Xubuntu 12.04.2 was
released [2]
As per [3] there is Secure Boot support within the kernel
included in this version. I believe that this update might
be worthy for doing an upgrade and a RC2.
I have started a test nightly (build 9999), based on 12.04.2
iso and this will be available soon at [4].

Upon relection, I'd support calling the r9999/10k build with the
new kernel and security fixes as RC2, then after some days of
testing if all is well rename that to the final.
If we wait a month to build invariably some project urls will
have shifted, pressure to include new versions of things, new
translations to debate merging... and we end up having to test
all over again. Since 12.04.2 has been out for some weeks in
Ubuntu, I think we can hope that the new xUbuntu base-iso has
had its most important parts tested already by the wider Ubuntu
community.

I'd also like to see the OSGeo Live be able to run on UEFI machines,
but there was some issue recently with some Samsung computer getting
bricked [1] when booting a new Ubuntu Live UEFI enabled version.
That wouldn't reflect well on OSGeo (even tho' it's certainly
nobody's fault). Maybe it would be better to "err on the side of
caution" .<br>

ps- which kernel does the r10k ISO actually contain?
