13.04 Call for Ubuntu Server/Cloud Topics

[Clint Byrum]

Excerpts from Robbie Williamson's message of 2012-10-02 07:39:55 -0700:
> Hi all,
> 
> This is the "official" call for discussion about Ubuntu Server/Cloud
> planning for the 13.04 cycle. As a reminder, this is a non-LTS
> release, thus it is a good time to get in your more daring and
> innovative server features, as we typically like to use the following
> LTS-1 (13.10) release to harden the key features we want to highlight in
> the next LTS (14.04).  However, please keep in mind this is *not* true
> for our cloud guest images, where users regularly deploy production
> workloads on non-LTS Ubuntu Server releases, so we might push back on
> features that impact these users.
> 
> The process will be conducted as follows:
> 
> 1. A call for blueprints, i.e. *this* email.
> 
> 2. Create blueprints that start with "servercloud-r-", mark Dave
> Walker[1] as approver, and propose them for uds-r[2].
> 
> 3. Send an email to ubuntu-server at lists.ubuntu.com to let us know you
> submitted the idea, as sometimes we can lose the LP notification amongst
> our other LP spam.  We will then review the blueprints, ask some
> clarification questions, and then approve the ones suitable for
> discussion at UDS.

We've done this one before, its usually helpful to get a feel for the
necessary work to promote things to main. I have started off with a few
must-haves for Main promotion, but I suspect we will have some others
sprinkled in there.
