The Ubuntu team is pleased to announce Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop and Server

editions and Ubuntu Netbook Remix, continuing Ubuntu's tradition of

integrating the latest and greatest open source technologies into a

high-quality, easy-to-use Linux distribution.

 

Read more about the features of Ubuntu 9.04 in the following press releases:

 

  Desktop edition    http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-9.04-desktop

  Server edition     http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-9.04-server

  Netbook Remix      http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-9.04-unr

 

Ubuntu 9.04 will be supported for 18 months on both desktops and servers.

Users requiring a longer support lifetime may choose to continue using

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS rather than upgrading to or installing 9.04.

 

Ubuntu 9.04 is also the basis for new 9.04 releases of Kubuntu, Xubuntu,

Edubuntu, UbuntuStudio, and Mythbuntu:
