Steve Langasek posted an update on Ubuntu 9.04
We are now one week from the beta release of 9.04 and have just entered beta freeze.
During the freeze, all uploads to main must be approved by a member of the release team, so if you have fixes which are important to get in, please do get in touch as soon as possible. Uploads to universe require a manual push through the queue, but are not subject to release management approval.
Issues which are important for the beta release will be tracked by the release team here:

Thanks,
