It's that time again! It's been a couple weeks since Alpha 2 landed, and
it's time to have a look again at the daily iso's as part of our 2 week
cadence. This week, grab an iso and take time to go thru the testcases
making sure everything is in good working order.

If you find something broken, as always please report the failure result
and add the bug from launchpad. If you take a look at
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/reports/defects, you'll notice 58
bugs have been reported this way! Excellent work! If we look at the
entire list, we've got 152 bugs reported via the isotracker already this
cycle. That represents something like ~1.5 bugs a day.

As always, here's a few links to help point you in the right direction.
If you've never tested before, don't hesitate to reach out to someone on
IRC, this mailing list, or wherever else. Thanks!

I can highly recommend zsync and, if your testing must occur in a VM,
testdrive. Zsync makes it easy to keep your isos up-to-date without
having to re-download them.
