Welcome to the Saucy Salamander Beta 1 release, which will in timebecome the 13.10 release.This alpha features images for Edubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME,Ubuntu Kylin, Ubuntu Studio and Xubuntu.Pre-releases of Saucy Salamander are *not* encouraged for anyone needinga stable system or anyone who is not comfortable running intooccasional, even frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended forUbuntu developers and those who want to help in testing, reporting, andfixing bugs as we work towards getting this release ready.At the end of the 12.10 development cycle, the Ubuntu desktop and serverflavours decided that they would reduce the number of milestone imagesgoing forward and the focus would concentrate on daily quality andfortnightly testing rounds known as cadence testing. Based on thatchange, the Ubuntu products themselves will not have a Beta 1 release.Their first milestone release will be the beta release on the 26th ofSeptember 2013. Other Ubuntu flavours have the option to release usingthe usual milestone schedule. Further schedule details can be found:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucySalamander/ReleaseSchedule.The Beta images are known to be reasonably free of showstopper CD buildor installer bugs, while representing a very recent snapshot of Saucy.You can download them here:Edubuntu: Edubuntu is a flavor of Ubuntu designed as a free education oriented operating system for kids of all ages.
