Shuttleworth Announces Karmic Koala

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the make-the-bad-man-stop dept.

An anonymous reader writes to mention that Mark Shuttleworth has announced the next release in the horribly alliterative Ubuntu family, "Karmic Koala." The new version hopes to include a newer, shinier, faster startup, better small screen support, a spruced-up desktop look (no more brown), and many minor tweaks and updates. "A newborn Koala spends about six months in the family before it heads off into the wild alone. Sounds about perfect for an Ubuntu release plan! I'm looking forward to seeing many of you in Barcelona, and before that, at a Jaunty release party. Till then, cheers."

    Debian unstable is like a Windows RTM, except it's more stable.

    PS. Don't mod this funny like you did last time, it's fucking true.
