I think that Ubuntu will stick to its schedule because they are keen
to release 10.10 on 10.10.10 (whereas Squeeze will be out once it is
mature enough to become Debian stable). There must also be some kind
of Ubuntu mini-fork from Debian for Maverick because Debian Squeeze
and Sid are both running on 2.6.32 whereas Maverick will most likely
be running 2.6.35 since it has been doing so for a while and it must
be too late in the development cycle to bump it up to 2.6.36. There
must therefore be some other pieces of the distribution puzzle where
10.10 is tracking upstream-upstream rather than upstream.
