After reading the following posts i wanted to raise the release issue. It seems that staff are under a lot of pressure to deliver the 6 month releases as well as LTS. I've been using Ubuntu for about 5 yrs and it seems that quality varies between releases likely due to the pressure staff are under. Would it not be better for all to produce an annual version that's allowed time for testing and bug fixing. LTS is ok but second year and one is starting to find quite a few apps that have been updated and a six month release simply doesn't give adequate time for staff.
