As expected, the beta release of the forthcoming Ubuntu 8.10 "Intrepid Ibex" has been released this afternoon. In addition to the desktop spin, the server release of the Ubuntu 8.10 Beta had also occurred. Likewise, the 8.10 Beta releases for Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu Studio, and Mythbuntu are all available.

This release doesn't contain any noteworthy features being introduced since the earlier alpha releases but bug-fixes and a few package updates. Details about this beta can be found in the Ubuntu Wiki and in the release announcement are download links for the various Ubuntu family products.
