Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot frozen
Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" has been frozen: now that the beta and user interface (UI) freezes have been announced, any further changes to the range of new features or user interface will require explicit approval by the release team. However, bug fixes will continue to be accepted so that they can be integrated into the forthcoming Beta 1 of Ubuntu 11.10, which is now being finalised. The first beta is scheduled for release next Thursday (1 September).
The last remaining freeze affects the kernel and will be decided a week before the second beta is released on 22 September. After that, only bug fixes will be integrated until the final release of Ubuntu 11.10 on 13 October 2011.
The latest stable release is Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal", while the current Long Term Support (LTS) version is Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS "Lucid Lynx". Ubuntu is sponsored by UK-based Canonical Ltd .
