[lubuntu-devel] Lubuntu Yakkety Yak 16.10 Beta 2 released!

[Walter Lapchynski]

You may have [noticed][1] that Yakkety Yak 16.10 Beta 2 was released
earlier this morning, nearly a week late. It was quite a busy week with new
kernels popping in at the last minute and causing all sorts of havoc.
Finally, in the last day or so, it culminated in a problem due to a dropped
Xorg package for Lubuntu alternates which the team managed to scramble
together at the last minute to smoke test. That said, sorry for the belated
announcement, but here it is! As always, the best place to download and
find out more information about the release is the [Release Notes][2].

In other news, the final release is coming 13 October. Testing is scheduled
to begin approximately one week before, right around the 6th or 7th of
October. That said, please join us for testing! It's fun and easy and
doesn't require you to have a separate testing machine. If you've got even
1GB of total memory (the more the better, though!) and ~8GB of free space,
you should be able to set up a virtual machine and still run your normal
stuff while you test. You don't have to be a computer whiz kid, either.
Best of all, we have people on hand to walk you through it. So please,
[join us][3]!

If you have questions, comments or concerns, please reply to the
[lubuntu-devel][4] mailing list or come visit us at #[lubuntu-devel][5] on
freenode.
