Upgrade Testing

[Tiago Ribeiro]

I will try to update my 12.04 partition to 14.04 tonight or tomorrow at
least.
It was not possible for me to do it sooner due to stability needs.


Regards,
Tiago Ribeiro

Nelson Mandela explained Ubuntu as follows:
"A traveller through a country would stop at a village and he didn't have
to ask for food or for water. Once he stops, the people give him food,
entertain him. That is one aspect of Ubuntu but it will have various
aspects. Ubuntu does not mean that people should not address themselves.
The question therefore is: Are you going to do so in order to enable the
community around you to be able to improve?"
