1 Day Left to Ubuntu Release (But in which time zone ?)

[medya]

as we all see, the countdown says 1 day left to Karma Koala,
I guess it would be nice to have Hours Left to release . (that would make it even more exciting) , as it is diffrent to say next day in different time zones . it could mean 1 hour or 24 hours .

so does anyone know, how many hours left to official release ?

[WalmartSniperLX]

It's your timezone (mine says 2 days left).

But couldn't tell you the details on hours or minutes.

I was seriously going to begin the same thread just before I saw this lol

[albandy]

Canonical Headquarters are in London, so I think they are using GMT time, for example, I'm in Spain, GMT+1, and the counter says 1 day left.

[medya]

the javascript generates the same image for all users in all time zones .
whatever, we need a Count Down , I wanna schedule to download ubuntu at very first minutes .

[medya]

now the countdown logo no longer says 1 day , it says Coming soon .
it is 1 Am here, do u think it will be released in minutes ? or I better go to sleep if it is not gonna be released soon .

[koleoptero]

Better go to sleep. I'm betting on Friday.

[infestor]

Canonical Headquarters are in London, so I think they are using GMT time, for example, I'm in Spain, GMT+1, and the counter says 1 day left.

that would be my guess too. i am also in GMT+1 so i will have to wait 1 hour more (not that impatient though :) )

[t0p]

I wanna schedule to download ubuntu at very first minutes

I realise you're probably(?) kidding. But I just want to point out: the servers will be inundated with requests because of this attitude. With the result that downloads may be very slow, or even impossible.

It would be a good idea if everyone who can use a bittorrent client does so to get hold of 9.10. If we all get the .iso via bittorrent, then seed it for a while afterwards, downloads will get easier, not harder. And if we leave the direct download servers for those who need them (because their ISPs block or throttle bittorrent), their downloads will be easier too.

"Ubuntu" is all about being nice to each other. So let's all do "Ubuntu"!

[Странник]

Yes please! I still remember that I was unable to update the karmic beta, when I needed to get some cruicial bugs fixed, because of a lot of users were downloading .iso files

[HappyFeet]

I wanna schedule to download ubuntu at very first minutes .

I'm sure your quality of life will improve drastically if you download the very second it is released. :rolleyes:

[HappyFeet]

But I just want to point out: the servers will be inundated with requests because of this attitude. With the result that downloads may be very slow, or even impossible.

Just use aria to download it. Do, as an example:

aria2c http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/karmic-desktop-amd64.iso
It will download it from multiple locations at the same time, drastically speeding up the download. Or better yet, use bittorrent.

[sdowney717]

install the beta now, most everything is already baked in.
I assume there will be a few final releases yet to come out.
this way you miss rush hour.

[Cam42]

seconded on the bittorrent method of downloading.

[OpenGuard]

Thousands of people updating their systems at a time .. good luck with that ;)

[bonfire89]

When Jaunty was coming out I waited until midnight here in Toronto (Eastern Timezone)

It did not come out at midnight, and was not out.


I waited for hours after midnight eastern timezone finally going to sleep without downloading it.


I suspect it is based on Hawaii time or w/e timezone is next to the international date line.



Edit: it would be sweet if I could set something up to automatically start downloading the torrent whenever it comes out so that I don't have to wait up for it, and so I can help seed it asap.

[t0p]

This is an interesting point. Just how different is the beta from the final release? I wouldn't have thought there are a great number of differences...

No, it's based on how fast Canonical guys can change the data on their website & upload final release images.

ofcourse I was gonna download using torrent , because it is even faster than server-downloading for me ;)

I just cant wait to have the torrent file .

[23meg]

Due to the complex nature of the release process (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReleaseProcess), in which multiple people working in different timezones take part, it's not possible to tell beforehand at what time exactly it will be out.

[onclouds]

ahh Hell!! Just release the damn .iso already!.. I'm anxious to try on liveCD for a couple of days and then..

BOOM!!
Karmic Koala + 30GB wasted on win7 for lans ;)
BOOM!!

[kingofpain]

Actually... if they say the release is on 29'th... then, it should be available at 0.01 GMT.
That's my point of view... of course, it's not going to be like that. I remember, last year i think, a guy from new zealand had to wait a day more than the actual release date announced.:D

[Johnsie]

Judging from previous alpha/beta testing experiences, if you already have the beta then you probably pretty much already have the release version. They don't tend to upgrade alot of packages on release day.

If you're looking for the full download then it will be whenever Cannonical decide... Midnight? Not sure why the staff would want to be in the office supporting a new release at midnight. If I were them I'd release it tomorrow morning when they are all in the office ;-)

The only people who know are the webmasters.

[sdowney717]

i usually start with alpha6 or first beta to upgrade.
you never need to imstall the final, simply updating packages eventually gives you the final release.

[Smudger]

Where can I get a torrent of the beta version?

[Pott]

It went from 2 Days to 1 Day to ... "Coming Soon" here.

[speedwell68]

I have been running the release candidate for a few days now, it's lovely and there have been a few large daily updates. I have just completed an upadte so I assume I am now running the final.

[dbyjazz]

Isn't it the same thing if you just download the beta now? Then just update tomorrow..

[Old_Grey_Wolf]

In my opinion it will be available Thursday or Friday depending on timezone.

I am not in a hurry to download and install it. These are the steps I will take:

1 ) I am going to start backing up my important files on Saturday morning.
2 ) Read the release notes for known problems.
3 ) If there are no known problems for my hardware, then download a copy.
4 ) If there are known problems, look for solutions, then download a copy if solutions exists.
5 ) Create a Live USB to check for compatibility with my hardware.
6 ) If the Live USB works, then I will install it on a parallel partition with my current version.
7 ) I will test the new partition after transferring all my setup, important data, and applications.
8 ) If the partition works after a few days of testing/use, I will resize the new partition to eliminate the old version.

It would be a good idea if everyone who can use a bittorrent client does so to get hold of 9.10. If we all get the .iso via bittorrent, then seed it for a while afterwards, downloads will get easier, not harder.

I make a point of being a good citizen and downloading a torrent version to seed even if I have a standard download--I just feel like it's the right thing to do.

[keplerspeed]

Torrent is generally faster, expecially when the servers are being hammered, like they will be in a few hrs. And seed, even if it is only for a few minutes.

[LookTJ]

I think they will release the release image as soon as all the timezones are into Thursday.

[HappyFeet]

I make a point of being a good citizen and downloading a torrent version to seed even if I have a standard download--I just feel like it's the right thing to do.

You don't need to download a separate bittorrent version. Just put the one you downloaded into your torrent folder and click the .torrent file, and it will verify you have it, and it will seed.

[HappyFeet]

I think they will release the release image as soon as all the timezones are into Thursday.

Last release it came out around 2-3pm london time.

[LookTJ]

Last release it came out around 2-3pm london time.
15:30/3:30pm to be exact :).

I'll be waiting for the torrents around 9am London time. :), to seed.

I remember Jaunty was released around noon EST.

yeah me too . at least they could Tweet a message or something like "guys we wont release at least for next 5 hours"

[vader897]

If only they said it was going to be released on the 30th... Then i could rest easy, get on with my assignment, and find a pleasant surprise when it came out a few hours early.

perhaps they wanted to make the release day as Close as possible to windows 7's release day.

[bibekdai]

Its a long wait :D

Hmm maybe, Except lots of people in the IT loop has had Windows 7 for a while. We all got it for free through msdn about a month or two ago.

I've set the 'Reload Every...' option on http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent and I'm still waiting... At least I don't have to refresh the main ubuntu website all the time :)

I am pretty sure people like us are making their job harder :P

[mashcaster]

I will check on the weekend as I am still using 8.04, but have 9.04 in VirtualBox. So hopefully, I will upgrade the VirtualBox installation on the weekend. :D

Okay, it's 7 AM the "day of" and still no link, disappointing.

[kthaker]

I've been checking http://releases.ubuntu.com/ every couple of hours to see if the karmic release images are up yet... sadly their not.

im in a GMT+2 zone..and the time is already 12:56pm... so im sure in the next few hours.. it should become available.

Ubuntu release days always make me nervous!!
kind of like what christmas mornings used to be

:lol:

[Absorbed]

In the past it has been released at about 12 noon GMT, which would mean it will be available in about an hour.

Don't download the images as soon as they seem to be available. You may end up downloading incomplete images, and that slows down the syncing of the mirrors and thus may delay the release.

Various news websites, blogs and forum posts will soon be screaming "It's released!!!11" as soon as they see some new files around releases.ubuntu.com (maybe even earlier); don't believe them. Wait for the official release announcement.

[mashcaster]

Guaranteed to be released before 12:59:59PM GMT-12

[vader897]

Just a little website I put up for occasions such as this one...
Its the Final Countdown (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/1032158/its_the_final_countdown/index.html)

That's counting down to 12 midnight in Australia of the 29th. Surely it has to be released before the end of my day. After all the release name is Karmic Koala. :P

[kthaker]

i definitely agree with that! i think the trick with the torrent file a few posts back is the best download strategy for me.... in any case... will all have to be queued overnight.

im sure the download mirrors will be on fire the minute the word gets out..

exciting stuff! ;)

[mrmememe]

Great idea.
now when I'll get back from work hopefully I will have the image on my hardrive already :-)

Thx. You only need to set your web browser so it would open torrents automatically (without asking) in your bittorent client (Transmission, in my case) and then uncheck the 'Display option dialogue' option in Transmission preferences... Then it will download automatically.

[ramesh_thiru]

There are no "real" guarantees. As 23meg said, Please just wait until the "official" announcement is made. From past experience, it's usually best to wait until about 3pm GMT.

Here you go:

http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/gmt-12/

So before this day is over, it will be released. ;)

[vader897]

the problem with GMT -12 is that no countries are in that time zone.. which would mean it would be the 30th for pretty much everybody in the world if it were released at 11:50pm GMT -12.

[Sean Moran]

From here at GMT+8, I just hope it's gonna be downloaded before I wake up on Halloween, because that would be a bad omen. I stay up late to start the download tonight on the 29th, or else I will happily wait until November, but I will not cut CDs on Halloween even if it was God's own o/s.

----o0o---

PS: I can tell by the traffic already that November looks like a better option. Thank you from the heart to the developers of Karmic Koala, and I will download my release version on Sunday. Please understand that the work you have done is SO good that the whole world wants to have it, and NOW!

I shall wait my turn in the line. Goodnight.

[immrlizard]

I have always disliked the way that the way that they have done the initial day's initial release of the software. I always try to spread the word on the torrent locations so that folks that need to get it through the regular download methods can get it. Sometimes it isn't easy to get the locations of those.

I have a decent machine with a lot of bandwidth looking to seed and get it out.

Lets hope it (distribution methods) continues to get better.

This is my first time on the announce list, that may solve that.

Downloading now :popcorn:

I hope 9.10 final really gives me a reason to upgrade, from what I tested on the Beta and RC1, I see no real purpose in a upgrade, imo. :-#
