Whoopsie, is sending data to daisy for use on https://errors.ubuntu.com/. You can still create bug reports using apport:

ubuntu-bug <package_name>

Thanks

Raring Ringtail 13.04 final release is April 25th and Hardy Heron server 8.04, Lucid Lynx desktop 10.04 and Oneiric Ocelot 11.10 reach End of Life on May 9 2013, correct?

[ManamiVixen]

Cavsfan, yes that is correct.

Have a look at the Releases wiki page

Cavsfan, yes that is correct.

Thanks ManamiVixen! I was never able to find the actual day they ended until yesterday and I just wanted to confirm it here.

Have a look at the Releases wiki page

Thanks cariboo907! I bookmarked that page.

These dates will mean changes to my custom grub community wiki.

The EOL dates actually just recently changed to May 9th, I think originally they were supposed loose support on the Raring release day.

I thought the dates would be the same, but could never find the exact day only the month. I guess things are firming up now that they are getting close.

I've updated a couple of the links in the original post:

• Subscribe to the Saucy-changes mailing list
• Draft of the Saucy release schedule

I'll create a new Sticky on the weekend.

Saucy Salamander now open for development

Most cycles, we have a week of breathing room where we can flip all the switches in a coordinated fashion and open everything at exactly the same time, but this archive opening sees various members of the release, archive, and toolchain teams in transit all over the globe, so we'll stagger things a bit.

In the next day or two, you should see a followup to this email from Matthias Klose doing his usual announcement of what has changed in the default toolchain, and Colin Watson turning on autosyncs from Debian.
Rather than wait until we're all awake at the same time, however, I'm unfreezing the archive this morning and declaring Saucy open for active development.

Happy merging.

On behalf of the Release Team, Adam Conrad

cariboo, you might want to edit the sticky to include the correct link. The original link you posted does not exist anymore.
