[xubuntu-users] Choosing the right/best version (release) of Xubuntu

[PGillespie]

So, what's your question then? Seems you've already made all the 
decisions that need be made.

Seems you want stability, stability, stability. Use Xubuntu 12.04.

Done.

When you ask "what version", are you asking what flavor of Xubuntu? 
There are many distros, such as Voyager, for example, that are based on 
Xubuntu 12.04?
