The final version to the public will be Ubuntu version 7.04. Feisty Fawn is just the code name. I mean shoot Vista?? What does that mean. What the heck does XP mean. They went from Windows 2000 (Which was Windows NT 6.0) to Windows XP. Confused the heck out of people. Making people think that ME and XP had something to do with each other.

Plus 6.10 and 6.11 are for people who like cutting edge, 6.06 is what you would use in your business or a person who can't deal with bugs would want.

People come up with the strangest reasons for putting down versions of Linux!

"Shoot! I am not using that crap cause it's got a silly name. ??? LOL! Come on."

Some minors errors.

Win2k = NT 5.0, NT 5.1 => XP.

Ubuntu 6.11 ? Was there a release in november 2006 ?

Sorry to say, but code name are more used than official numbered version, at least in Ubuntu's World and debian one !

I meant Ubuntu 7.04 (Which I wrote in the beginning of the text and then wrote wrong.)

Anyway, a non tech person that goes to Ubuntu's site will see in BIG bold test UBUNTU 6.10 (Not Dapper Drake or whatever)

Code names are used with people market heavy with the code name. Most people I know call Mac OS X, Mac OS X not Lepoard or Tiger or what ever the new cat name is.
