• Previous session at [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/ImprovingCommunityLaptopTesting UDS-M]

Summary

"[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing Laptop Testing]" is a community-driven project started with Lucid Lynx Alpha 3. Our goal is get Ubuntu working great on as many different makes and models of laptops as possible, mainly testing point releases of the development cycle. This could be done both in all the Community and LoCos, sharing hardware info about Laptops to avoid duplicates and trying to attract as many new contributors as possible.

Project has been started by the [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-it-testing Italian LoCo Testing] team on launchpad. It's organized at moment with [http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/GruppoTest Wiki pages], a [http://liste.ubuntu-it.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gruppo-test Mailing List] and an IRC channel #ubuntu-it-test. In the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing Testing Team Wiki page] this project is reported under [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Activities Activities] along with an [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Laptop English page].

In this session we would like to discuss how to improve this project.
