I think it's good if the main quality focus is on the LTS. The
short-lived intermediate versions don't interest me much; I
see them as a testbed for innovations, and not as "work
horses" that require extra attention for stability and
reliability. "Want stable? Go LTS!" is a simple message that
everyone can easily understand and approve of, I think.<br>

<div>In 14.04 LTS an important step has been made towards
modernization: the Whisker menu and the single desktop bar.
Excellent. Cool and slick. Nice artwork, beautiful deep blue
wallpaper. Radiates quality in a restrained way.<br>

<div>One thing I'd really like (ceterum censeo, as the Roman
statesman used to say), is to see Abiword and Gnumeric being
replaced by LibreOffice. It would make the default
installation so much better.... First impressions matter a
lot.<br>

<div> A lot of work has gone into QA from all sides this
cycle.<br>
<br>
What I'd like to get from replies to this mail is what <u>you</u>
thought could have been done better, what could have
happened sooner, thoughts for what we could do in the next
cycle.<br>
<br>
As an example, we're looking at Exploratory Testing
either on it's own or in conjunction with calls from us to
test areas. Simply put - use the applications you normally
do and report problems.<br>
<br>
The problem I can foresee with that is that we'd get
little testing reported without calls. <br>
<br>
Another idea I'm toying with at the moment is not worrying
so much about testing packages marked as optional - having
a different set of tests for non-LTS releases ... <br>
<br>
Ideas people - think outside the box if you've time :)<br>
<br>
Hopefully we'll get some ideas that will make everyone's
life a bit easier during the 14.10 cycle and on<span
