We're a little late, but Real Life got in the way, so here we finally are. Canonical, the commercial sponsor of Ubuntu, announced today that Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop Edition has been released. This version focusses on improvements in cloud computing on the server using Eucalyptus, further improvements in boot speed, as well as development on Netbook Remix. The related KDE, Xfce, and other variants have been released as well. Update by ELQ: Just a quick note to say that one of my Creative Commons videos was selected to be part of Ubuntu's Free Culture Showcase package that comes by default with the new Ubuntu version!

Transitional bugs happen on every occasion including the move from crufty distribution specific scripts to NetworkManager. I am not saying that your criticism of the project itself as silly (it might or it might not be but that is a entirely different discussion) but I am definitely going to call it very silly and ridiculously stupid if you persist on blaming Fedora for what Ubuntu decides to include by default with known broken non-upstream patches.
You are indulging is some wild hand-waving and mental gymnastics like guilt by association to somehow rechristen PulseAudio as a Fedora project despite the clear facts being explained to you. PulseAudio, originally called Polypaudio was developed for several years as a entirely volunteer project. Fedora Project widely got the credit for including PulseAudio by default. That does not somehow make it a Fedora Project.
Face the reality: Pretty much every major distribution and several popular mobile devices are shipping with PulseAudio by default. So somehow all of them are stupid or they understand the benefits and it is working well for them. I will leave you to decide which sounds more realistic.
