Key Status/Updates:

*        We're seeing a lot of good bug fixing on master, we still have quite a number of open medium+ bugs which I'd like to see fixed in 2.2.

*        The 4.8 kernel is not out yet so the first rc build will likely be delayed until it is. We also haven't run a pretest to verify the issues in M3 are fixed as we haven't merged enough fixes yet so this isn't a huge issue.

*        The YP 2.2 branch name will be "morty".

*        I was asked to announce the release codenames earlier so the YP 2.3 branch name will be "pyro".

*        There were some serious regressions on krogoth around useradd/systemd. I often hear complaints we don't move fast enough with the stable release, this was a reminder of how we can get it badly wrong.

*        The defect tracking metric dropped this week, we're 50 points off the 2.1 level and I'm hoping we can achieve a bug reduction to that level before release.


Key YP 2.2 Dates:

*        YP 2.2 M4 cut off would be: 10/3/16

*        YP 2.2 M4 release would be: 10/28/16


Tracking Metrics:

            WDD 2451 (last week 2557)
