[Douglas A. Whitfield]

For those of you unfamiliar with ubuntu upgrades or releases let me suggest
waiting a couple weeks until you upgrade. You are likely to get frustrated
with download speeds until things calm down a bit.

The Ubuntu team is pleased to announce Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Long-Term Support).
This release incorporates the Desktop Edition and the Server Edition.  The
Server Edition can be used on physical servers, on Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud
(UEC), and on Amazon's EC2 public cloud.  Codenamed "Lucid Lynx", 10.04 LTS
continues Ubuntu's proud tradition of integrating the latest and greatest
open source technologies into a high-quality, easy-to-use Linux
distribution.

We are also pleased to announce Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Edition, which is not a
long-term support release.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS will be supported for three years on desktops and five
years on servers.  Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Edition will be supported for 18
