== Kubuntu ==

The following sections cover this week's Kubuntu activity.

=== Kubuntu 6.06 LTS Released ===

Kubuntu 6.06 LTS has been released. It is available for download now
or for the first time you can order free Kubuntu CDs through Shipit.
This release comes with KDE 3.5.2 and includes a new installer which
you can use direct from the live desktop CD. We have focused on
stability and bug fixes, as our first Long Term Support release 6.06
will be supported for 3 years on the desktop and 5 years on the
server.

Thanks to everyone who helped test this release.

Planning for the next release of Kubuntu, Edgy, has now begun.  We are
collecting ideas on our wiki page and will be converting them into
specs
for the developers summit in Paris later this month.  Please add any
ideas you have.
