WattOS could be a distro following  only  Ubuntu LTS releases. Mint is doing that. Just an idea.

I guess with Meltdown and Spectre, things might get delayed further?
Anyway, in general, I rather wait for a more 'solid' version - than have something less 'solid' because of needing to have it out by a certian date.  But that's just my (newbie) opinion.   It is probably a 'chicken and egg' situation, that.  I can only leave it to the experts...  : )

Hi all,

Things are good...yes I have been slowed a bit with real world issues (I work for income in Infosec and healthcare). In any case, I think its probably prudent to go ahead and follow 18.04 since its now only 3 months away. (probably best unless someone has a burning desire otherwise)

That being said, I am still playing with 17.10 mostly to test out what works well or not. I still want to "bake" the features list and see if we can polish this release well and squish some of the longer term bugs that have been around.

I am spending some time this weekend as I am home and not in a crisis I believe (someone could always call the biff-phone) and some screens of some things might be forthcoming. Thanks again for those lingering about and helping/providing feedback as we get close to year 10 :)
