*tl;dr*: April 25th is the deadline for desktop-full. Fix your failing jobs<br>
on the farm or ask us to disable them. Check your repo's status on<br>

<br>
*Release Deadline*<br>
Today's update is brought to you by the metapackage "desktop-full".<br>
<br>
desktop-full consists of the metapackages "desktop", "perception", and<br>
"simulators".<br>
<br>
After desktop-full is released into Kinetic, we can consider ourselves in<br>
beta for Kinetic.<br>
<br>
I would like to establish a deadline of April 25th for releasing<br>
desktop-full.<br>
<br>
Here are the remaining packages that need to be released:<br>
<br>
control_msgs<br>

Maintainers of these packages (this includes me), let's get moving. If we<br>
released 1 package per day, we would beat the deadline. It's important to<br>
release early so that we can catch packaging errors on the farm.<br>
<br>
*armhf, arm64, and Debian Jessie*<br>
There are a lot of failing binary jobs on the farm right now. I believe all<br>
of the failures are currently on armhf/arm64 platforms, Debian Jessie, or<br>
both.<br>
<br>
To the maintainers of packages with failing jobs (this also includes me):<br>
<br>
If your failing job is due to architectural differences on ARM, please<br>
either address the problem or ask us to disable the armhf/arm64 build for<br>
your repo.<br>
<br>
If your failing job is due to missing package dependencies in Jessie,<br>
please look into adding the correct rosdep keys or adding a backport for<br>
missing dependencies. We do not have a way to blacklist packages in Debian<br>
only, but luckily these issues are usually easier to identify and fix than<br>
architecture differences.<br>
<br>
And if at some point your package fails on all architectures and you don't<br>
make efforts to fix it, I will blacklist it entirely because those emails<br>
are really annoying to receive.<br>
<br>
<br>
*Blocked Repos Webpage*<br>
An intern at OSRF is working on a web interface for the<br>
check_blocking_repos.py script announced on this list a few weeks ago.<br>
<br>
You can test it here:<br>
<a href="http://54.183.65.232/status_page/blocked_releases/blocked_releases_kinetic.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://54.183.65.232/status_page/blocked_releases/blocked_releases_kinetic.html</a><br>
<br>
I encourage you to use it to figure out which packages are blocking your<br>
package (or if you are blocking someone else's packages).<br>
<br>
It's still in review and has a few minor improvements pending. If you find<br>
issues with it, you can report them on<br>
<a href="https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/ros_buildfarm" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/ros_buildfarm</a><br>
