Hello all,

today it came to my attention Dell plans to do two things:

a) Stick with Ubuntu 8.04 in favour of a more recent release for new  
machines.

b) Fork the package repository to get updates out to their customers.

need-the-latest-version/1242843704>

In my opinion, this is disappointing. Very disappointing. What is  
wrong with Ubuntu's release/fix/backport strategy for such a thing to  
happen?
