I agree, Jackson,
If 'the customer' wants it in March, we can do the best of that
situation. And your idea of a special edition sounds good to me.
It certainly means some extra testing, but it is a great opportunity.

I tried the 6/23 Live iso today on my Powermac MDD and it failed in
the same way as the 6/22 Live iso I reported earlier.
I used the boot parameters:
live-nosplash-powerpc snd-powermac.blacklist=yes
The last message on the screen before the boot process hangs is:

Hi again,
I have not read that on the news/post/link. I did not understand your first

helpful so at least, everyone know what we are up to :)

Hello Ben,
Let me put it this way.
For how many years now, a Windows XP Users has been using XP?
Do they really update it?
Do you know how many users of XP are using a Pirate Version on the whole
world? count me as former one ;)

Ali,
they plan to release the CD's in March, doing so means they will be using
13.10. In April (one month later) 14.04 LTS is released and any users of
13.10 will be prompted to upgrade. Those who choose not to will have
support dropped in July. As I have stated a couple of times, it seems
pointle
+1
Although the LTS was meant to last, at least Linux is out in the open for
distribution.

I still think it's worth getting an early release of 14.04 or a late
release of saucy, but anything will work.
We could always aim for an early (~beta1/14.02) release of 14.04 that will
auto-update to 14.04.

Phill,
Problem is, we are talking apples and oranges here.
I have never stated that Lubuntu 13.10 will be 'the replacement' for
Windows XP :)
I have stated, I'm stating, and will state that Lubuntu, is the best
replacement for Windows XP.
Please, if that is not clear, by all means, I'm more than
I see their adoption as a great step forward in Lubuntu. The only issue
with them adopting the current version could be bad publicity of their

The advantage to waiting for a LTS, would be stability, and less of a risk

Yes,
I have a Q by all means promote lubuntu as an XP replacement... but the
release of such a replacement will be the 14.04 LTS. As desktop releases
only have 9 months support, are you seriously going to argue that 13.10 is
a replacement and in 9 months time all support will be dropped? If th

This is pretty awesome news for lubuntu!
@ Ali and others who I asked to hold back on our shouting out that lubuntu
should wait for 13.10, I apologise! Sadly it is planned from March, I do
think we should get in touch with them and ask that it coincide with our
1st LTS which is April.

Back to the original topic of the email, I just downloaded the 06/23 PPC
isos (both desktop and alternate). The desktop hung on me the same as on
06/21 and 06/22. I put my 1GB chip back into my system thinking that having
only 256MB RAM might be the problem, but it still hangs with 1GB RAM.

Hi Keith,
Whilst we cannot keep the daily builds guaranteed to be CD sized, at each
testing version they should be. Please do comment up on the mailing list if
they are not.
