Hi Lance, We won't shoot you at all, you are doing a great job :D beside we need you :P
Okay, here we go again. Back to the work :D I thought we could have a week off or something? but that is not possible, I guess? :D According to my humble understanding: http://amjjawad.blogspot.com/2013/03/to-be-or-not-to-be.html Those with Lubuntu 12.04 should not worry much, IMHO. They will have all the security updates they need because their core system is an LTS :) I have an idea. If we really really really can not drop 13.10 for whatever reason, then we can go ahead and do that with these changes: 1- Critical Bug Fixes 2- Different Artwork 3- Please replace Chromium with Firefox, please!!! IMHO, that is all for now. I did not run a survey/poll yet to ask about Lubuntu 13.04 performance. I'm waiting for one week until at least some issues come up. I have a feeling that 13.04 has improved a lot but that is me. IF we must release 13.10, then let's do the minimum efforts possible and focus on 14.04 from now. This is my humble opinion :) Thank you!
