The Release Team

The Ubuntu Release Team is responsible for the overall Release cycle, which includes monitoring the healthy development and stability of the Ubuntu distribution.

During the devel development phase, they handle milestones such as Freezes and Beta to ensure that the Final Release will be in a good state. For LTS releases, the Release Team is also responsible for producing Point releases approximately every 6 months (until the next LTS).

A subset of the Release Team is the Canonical Release Management team. This group oversees the Canonical infrastructure that facilitates the Release Team’s work.
