For Ubuntu users, we now have daily automated builds of the staging
branch available at:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-lxc/+archive/daily

These are triggered automatically on code change of the staging branch
and will let us confirm that everything is still buildable and hopefully
soon, run additional tests on the built binaries.

We are currently running builds for Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10.

Use these are your own risks, these are fully automated, non-tested
builds without any patch or override of the binaries coming from lxc.

If you find any packaging bug with these, feel free to e-mail me
directly. If you find bugs with LXC using these packages, please report
them on this mailing-list so we can track the regression and fix it
before it has a chance to get into the stable branch.
