From: Ubuntu Announcements <[hidden email]> 

The Ubuntu team is proud to announce version 7.10 of the Ubuntu family 
of distributions. 

Ubuntu is a full-featured Linux distribution for desktops, laptops, and 
servers, with a fast and easy install and regular releases.  A 
tightly-integrated selection of excellent applications is included, and 
an incredible variety of add-on software is just a few clicks away. 

Read more about the features of Ubuntu 7.10 in the following press 
releases: 

   Ubuntu 7.10           http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu710
   Desktop edition       http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-desktop710
   Server edition        http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-server710
   Ubuntu family         http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-family710

Professional technical support is available from Canonical Limited and 
hundreds of other companies around the world.  For more information 
about support, visit http://www.ubuntu.com/support

Ubuntu 7.10 will be supported for 18 months on both desktops and 
servers. Users requiring a longer support lifetime on servers may choose 
to continue using Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, with security support until 2011, 
rather than upgrade to or install 7.10. 

Ubuntu 7.10 is also the basis for new 7.10 releases of Kubuntu and 
Edubuntu:
