Jaunty Jackalope and Karmic Koala
p2pnet news | Open Source:- First, the Jaunty Jackalope. But coming soon, the Karmic Koala.
The Jaunty Jackalope (right) refers to the just-released Ubuntu 9.04.
However, development has already started on the Karmic Koala, version 9.10 of the Ubuntu Linux distribution.
Karmic Koala is scheduled for a final release on October 29 and a, “first milestone (Alpha 1) is expected to be finished in mid-May, says Heise Online, adding:
“A Feature Freeze is planned for the end of August. As usual with Ubuntu, a Beta release (01.10.09) and a release candidate (22.10.09) are planned, following the first six alpha releases.
“Ubuntu 9.10 is expected to focus on server functions related to cloud computing, energy conservation, shorter start up times and a revised login screen. Better hardware support for the growing number of netbooks is also planned. Following the final release of Ubuntu 9.10, a Developer Summit is scheduled for the 19th of November.”
