Hey,

Is wubi still a supported way of installing? If so, who maintains it?

Seems we have some bugs [1] including one fairly serious one [2] which
causes the wrong version of Ubuntu to get installed.

I was told wubi (installer) was to be replaced by a simpler wubi which
is just a menu. This doesn't seem to have happened. If we don't plan
on fixing these (new user) facing issues, is it time to retire wubi
from the images?

Cheers,
Al.
