Ubuntu 13.04 is expected for release on the 25th of November

Umm, what? You mean April?

"Ubuntu 13.04 is expected for release on the 25th of November while the beta release is expected for March. The Debian Import Freeze is happening in mid-February."

Uh. no. I think you mean 25th April. The "04" in "13.04" is the clue.

[schmidtbag]

well, he did say 113 days, and I'm pretty sure both the 25th of this November and next November are not 113 days away.

We all know 2 facts about Michael:
- He's not using a spell-checker
- He's using the Mayan calendar, so Mayan November 25 = Our April 25

Or maybe the alpha is set for november?

I wouldn't mind getting involved, but cripes it seems like you need a lot of domain knowledge just to dive into an OSS project. Scanning through the bug reports and it's like, "yeah no clue... no clue... no clue...".

You can't take the completion thing too seriously because I don't think they meet 100% for any release nor is it supposed to. The last two releases seem to be 80+%.

The last version that was good was 11.04. And when is Ubuntu 100% done ? The day it launches, it has 100MB of updates already there.
