Its also true that there are a few bugs that I would have liked to have gotten fixed and which will probably be SRU candidates. All around including the other derivatives I think karmic introduces a lot of great features, great bug fixes, but also introduces a number of feature regressions and new bugs. This is necessary to make progress unfortunately. Lastly, I think we've come closer together as a team and have learned how to better work with each other. Theres a lot of value to that and I think Lucid will be an absolutely amazing LTS release as a result. Cheers, -- Cody A.W.
