Hi all,

As you may have noticed, Gutsy Gibbon Beta has been released today. The
Server team has put a lot of effort to bring you the latest and greatest
of databases (mysql 5.0.45 and postgresql 8.2.5), web servers (apache
2.2.4), security (AppArmor 2.1), network authentication (openldap 2.3.35
and the new auth-client-config package) and hardware (kernel 2.6.22).

But still we need your help to get all these brand new components
tested. If you have access to some server type hardware or have the
opportunity to duplicate a production environment into a test
configuration, we'd love to hear if the next version of Ubuntu Server
would break your existing setup. Other areas of focus are proper upgrade
from Feisty Server and the new installation tasks (Print Server,
Database Server, Mail Server and Samba Server). It doesn't take so much
time and is an easy and simple way to help improve the quality of the
next version of Ubuntu Server, the Gutsy Gibbon !

More information about the beta can be read from
http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/gutsybeta. Ubuntu Server 7.10 Beta can be
downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/7.10 or one of the
local mirrors.
