Whiteboard

[USER STORIES]
Ramon likes MAAS, however he wants to be able to obtain the latest MAAS with the new features. He also wants to make sure that the new release wont overwrite his changes in the PXE templates. This is why he needs newer MAAS.

[ASSUMPTIONS]
MariaDB/Percona will be packaged for Saucy

[RISKS]
MAAS features don't hit trunk before Feature Freeze, which would case a delay in releasing them or not releasing them at all.

[IN SCOPE]
