<p>http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/release</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Another mile stone for <a href="http://www.planetlowyat.com/blog/tag/canonical">Canonical</a> teams. Good jobs!</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.planetlowyat.com/blog/tag/ubuntu">Ubuntu</a> team is pleased to announce Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop and Server, continuing Ubuntu&#8217;s tradition of integrating the latest and greatest open source technologies into a high-quality, easy-to-use Linux distribution.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/810features/images/features/screens/home/main.jpg" alt="Ubuntu" /></p>
<p>Features:</p>
<p>Productivity tools: Ubuntu supports all of your favourite web-based mail programs like Yahoo(TM) or Gmail (TM). But for the office, Evolution provides all the calendering, contacts and full function office email you need. Pidgin IM also puts you in instant touch with colleagues and integrates with your personal IM services simply and easily.</p>
<p>Browsing: Includes Mozilla&#8217;s Firefox 3 as the default browser. Faster, safer and themed browsing for users.</p>
<p>Photos: Upload from your camera or phone to F-Spot and manage, tag, share and sort your photos and upload easily to you favourite social networking sites.</p>
<p>Music and video: Plug in your PSP, iPod, MP3 player; share playlists with your friends; buy in the creative commons online music stores, stream more live radio and content from the BBC and plug in more devices with UPnP.</p>
<p>Office applications: Word processing, spreadsheets and presentations can all be delivered through Open Office. And, they completely integrate with the proprietary office applications out there. The big difference is that they are free.</p>
<p>Accessibility: At the core of the Ubuntu philosophy is the belief that computing is for everyone and access should be free and complete whatever your economic or physical circumstances. Ubuntu is one of the most accessible desktop operating systems around.<br />
Read more about the features of Ubuntu 8.10 in the following press releases:</p>
<p> Desktop edition    <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-8.10-desktop">http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-8.10-desktop</a><br />
 Server edition     <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-8.10-server">http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-8.10-server</a></p>
<p>Ubuntu 8.10 will be supported for 18 months on both desktops and servers.  Users requiring a longer support lifetime may choose to continue using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS rather than upgrading to or installing 8.10.</p>
<p>Ubuntu 8.10 is also the basis for new 8.10 releases of Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and UbuntuStudio:</p>
