Definitely not - we don't want them to be turned away.
Maybe not - an older version might be okay
Steer them to something recent, but not very latest
The more recent versions will help the community more
Let's stick with putting them on the latest version

This is a hard question to answer right off. For the 9.10 release, yes! But in the past, an LTS may have been more stable. This may be the case again in the future. I do not think there is one right answer to the question. I also think it depends on the user. Some new users may be okay with bugs, I was. Others, like my grandma, not so much.
agree 100%. in effect, there should be a longer release than 6 months. this will give developers to fix the bugs reported in the upcomming release. currently, even if bugs are not fixed, the release goes on due to the "one release per 6 months" thingy. If we have a more flexible release date, those bugs that were reported during testing would most likely not drag on past the release. in addition, bugs should be evaluated with their severity in mind before releasing the cd with the sofware that has the bug in it. if its a high importance (major) bug, dont include it. instead, put a dummy package in and stick it into the repos when the bug is fixed.

Don't waste your energy trying to change opinions ... Do your thing, and don't care if they like it.
9-10 brought the Ubuntu Software Center and a large number of audio problems..
Ask most what they want, they will most likely go for the newest, but don't MAKE them choose one way or another.
