Alright people - 18.1 is going live over the weekend! I expect first builds around Tuesday as usual. 
I know we have unresolved 17.1 issues, and I don’t expect much improvement on stuff like the audio problems. But: Fairphone is being fair once again and has opened up Gerrit access to their kernel build. This will make it a lot easier to keep the kernel (including the audio patches) up to date in the future.
