[ckan-dev] Call for testers: help us test the upcoming CKAN 2.7 and patch releases

Thu Jul 20 15:00:46 UTC 2017

Thank you so much Jari!

I've created a couple of Xenial packages for people to test.

http://packaging.ckan.org/build/python-ckan_2.7.0b-xenial3_amd64.deb
http://packaging.ckan.org/build/python-ckan_2.6.3b-xenial3_amd64.deb

I doubt these will be tested and documented in time for 2.7 but we can make
them available shortly afterwards.
