** Description changed:

- TODO once the next devscripts version has been uploaded

  ## FFE ##
  
  [Rationale]
  
  2.6.12 includes the rmadison change to swap from the madison.cgi
  endpoint to the Launchpad-API based implementation [1] which we would
  like to avoid adding an Ubuntu delta for. This change is critical to
  ensure rmadison functionality, since the old endpoint won't be migrated
  to the new Canonical cloud and will be shut down soon (meaning next few
  months).
  
- It also includes the lzip -> plzip swap relevant for the plzip MIR [2].
+ It also includes the lzip -> plzip swap relevant for the plzip MIR [2],
+ which also means however that it won't migrate until that MIR is sorted
+ out. Should the MIR not be accepted in time I'll propose an Ubuntu to
+ swap this back to lzip.
  
  [ Scope ]
  
  The package is not seeded, but important developer tooling that many
  people and automations rely on.
  
  $ seeded-in-ubuntu devscripts
  devscripts's binaries are not seeded.

- [ Regression Potential ]
- 
- * Include this section for new upstream microreleases.
- 
- * Think about what the upload changes in the software. Imagine the
-   change is wrong or breaks something else: how would this show up?
- 
- * It is assumed that any FFe candidate is well-tested before the
-   upload and has a low overall risk of regression, but it's important
-   to make the effort to think about what ''could'' happen in the event
-   of a regression.
- 
- * This must never be "None" or "Low", or entirely an argument as to why
-   your upload is low risk.
- 
- * This both shows the release team that the risks have been considered,
-   and provides guidance to testers in regression-testing the update.
- 
  [ Testing ]
  
  * Smoke test:
-   - PPA: <link to ppa>
-   - Build: <link to the build logs>
+   - PPA: 
https://launchpad.net/~finnrg/+archive/ubuntu/devscripts-ffe/+packages
    - Installation: <link to the installation test>
    - Upgrade: <link to the upgrade test>
    - Autopkgtest: <autopkgtest results>
    - Does it break other packages: <link related bugs>
  * If other testing is appropriate to perform before landing this
    update, this should also be described here.
  
  [ Other Info ]
  
  * Anything else you think is useful to include.
  * Anticipate questions from users, the Release Team,
    the +1 maintenance team, the security team, and the Technical Board,
    and address these questions in advance.
  
- [ Original Description ]
