Why use 12.04? 14.04 is out now, so it seems better to use it to me... is there a reason to use 12.04?

I guess you know what I'm talking about :) 50 is going to be VERY hard to do... 60 is going to be stretching it too... We are going to need a window manager, and something to handle the desktop right?

I think it is a preference thing. At this point, Alpha Beta RC is more realistic, but if the devs want to do more releases, they can chime in and say so. > 15- I know it is hard to tell at this point but any idea when ToriOS > 1.0 will be available to download and use?
