By this point I've received numerous emails from those of you inquiring about our progress with our Month With Ubuntu article we first talked about in February. We had originally anticipated having it ready by late March or early April and now that we're approaching late April, more than a few people have pointed out this fact.;-)

 

Unfortunately due to circumstances out of our direct control (unrelated to Ubuntu itself) we have been unable to complete the article as soon as we hoped. With Ubuntu 8.04 scheduled to be released in 6 days and the likelyhood that our article revolving around 7.10 would not be ready until after that release, we have decided to hold back the article in order to incorporate Ubuntu 8.04. This will allow us to include the upgrade experience and use certain more up to date benchmarks.

 

Assuming Ubuntu 8.04 is released on schedule, we expect that we'll have finished our work with Ubuntu and will have an article up in early May.

 

As for those of you wondering how our experience has been so far, I'm very impressed in many respects. It's not perfect, there are some deficiencies I'd consider glaring, but we'll talk about that more in the full article.
