Ultimate Edition 2.6.1 - more then a maintenance release.
I felt since Ubuntu drops maintenance releases. IE 10.04.1, it is Long Term Support (LTS), for us to to do likewise. I do not look for there to be a Ultimate Edition 2.6.2, for a lack of a better word I feel is perfect. For my perceivable future I intend to run this O/S, not that there is anything wrong with Ultimate Edition 2.8. Amazing how many bugs get squashed shortly after a "final release", a few I have personally implemented. I am thinking Ultimate Edition 2.9 only to run momentarily as I build it. Why some may ask? I am not a KDE mahn and prefer stability
If I was currently running Ultimate Edition 2.6, would I run out and snag 2.6.1? If I was happy with my current O/S absolutely not, the only real gain would be the "fixes", updates and upgrades, which you have probably already downloaded & installed through your update manager. If I somehow managed to whack my O/S 2.6.1 would be the logical answer. I now take this back, after seeing what it now does. Ultimate Edition 2.6.1 was built off 10.04.1 a total re-build. It will be my main O/S until at the very minimum Ultimate Edition 3.0.
I unleashed the below on the forum users & many loved it, however what we have now is a multitude better. A complete re-build from the ground up & why the great delay. I can not stress how much better Ultimate Edition 2.6.1 is over 2.6.
