Hi David, Has that always been there? If yes, I have to admit that I missed that line, probably because I didn't read properly after reading about the "very successful collaboration between the Raspberry Pi Foundation and Canonical" due to which "Snappy Ubuntu Core is available for the Raspberry Pi 2". [1]
In my opinion that's a bit misleading. Anyway, when can we expect a system-image server to be set up?
