Registered by Ricardo Salveti

Whiteboard

[rsalveti, May 3, 2012] Avik, please review the current WI list and check with John to see if we're missing anything here. The goal is to have a common config fragment to be used by all the kernel packages we produce at our Ubuntu LEB (drivers, features, etc).
[rsalveti, May 31, 2012] Config fragment created, but still need further testing and deployment at linux-linaro. This should be moved to next cycle.
[dzin, June 1, 2012] Moved to backlog
[rsalveti, Jun 11, 2012] Moving back to 12.06 to be completed during this cycle.
[dzin, jun 19, 2012] Avik has been reassigned. No resource to do this work. Move to backlog.
[rsalveti, Jun 25, 2012] With Avik's input I got what would be needed to finish up the blueprint, moving to 12.06 again.
[rsalveti, Jun 28, 2012] Config fragment published at http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=kernel/configs.git;a=summary, and used as base for all LEB kernel packages.

Meta:
Headline: Ubuntu specific config fragment is now published to be used by the Linux Linaro Baseline
Acceptance: Ubuntu config reviewed and published to be used as a config fragment.
Roadmap id: CARD-152
