Standup Notes 2019 05 29
Participants (alphabetical): Allie, Conor, Erik, Jen, John, Kushal (async), Mike, Mickael, Nina (async)
Release updates:
- Apparmor fix merged into develop and release branch
- John and Kushal worked on translations. Testing logic changes meant i18n tests failed. John pushed a fix for that this AM. Now it looks like tests are running and both PRs are open, running CI. Once those are merged, we can cut RC2 to test fix for AppArmor issue. Kev/Mickael will merge i18n PRs when ready.
- Jen: Do we want to cut RC2 given delays?
- Mickael: OK, let's cut release tag and do pre-flight testing
