HI Alan, this is running so close to the wire, I'm not really sure if I should mention it. It is planned for 12.04 Lubuntu, but there is actually a squeak of a chance that for those on low-spec computers who wish to choose Lubuntu that the LSC may be ready in time. It will have most likely missed deadline and quite possibly require a ppa for the 11.10 series, but I do know that for some people lubuntu is about their option and with lubuntu coming 'official' at 11.10 it may be worth bearing in mind. The guy has gone from a standing start to something that is on its ppa now. It is amazing when someone takes the bull by the horns, just how quickly they can get things done in an environment where people are eager for him to succeed and help in all areas. There after I guess we have to wait two years for a new innovative approach to things :P just you all wait until the launch of Grub3... lol
I'm away from ~18th Oct - 1st Nov, If there is anything you feel Lubuntu can contribute, please do ask. We do have UK based people (along with all others in EU, R-O-W) who I am sure would be happy to help with for the UK side. Regards, Phill.
