Subscribed ubuntu-release and, as outlined in the Freeze Exception procedure, here's a description of the changes:

- Three test descriptions (optical/read, optical/cdrom-write and optical/dvd-write) are changed, by removing the 4th step in the test procedure. This reads 'When the test completes, proceed by clicking "Next"'. This means that the strings to be translated change, which impacts the translation team (see +1 from David Planella on comment #10). No new text is added, so the work to be done involves removing the translation for that step.

Rationale for the change:
- Having a test procedure with erroneous steps is confusing and leads to users skipping the test, which is considered core for Ubuntu Friendly submissions. Removing the erroneous instruction, in addition to the fact that "yes" or "no" are autoselected depending on the outcome of these tests, will hopefully result in less skipped tests and more valid submissions.
