Here is the Ubuntu 10.10 (http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/03/ubuntu-1010-release-schedule.html) "M" Release schedule!!!

Why worry about the 10.10 release schedule, when Lucid hasn't been released yet. That is only a preliminary release schedule, it won't be set in stone until UDS. If I remember correctly the next one in in Belgium.

Well this does happen to be an Ubuntu forum so why not make a post to inform people?

Because a preliminary release schedule that's just been put on a wiki page which is almost guaranteed to change significantly will misinform people, especially those who will copy and paste it around in forums, blogs and elsewhere, instead of linking to the original page.

And I'm not making this up; it does happen every cycle, causing confusion about deadlines.

I agree. It's kinda stupid to copy-paste a schedule that very likely will change; don't know why people can't just link to the wiki.

I like to have the final product so I can avoid the large number of updates.

because if you post information without linking to an article, it can look like you're just "in the know" and not just a regular dude who just happens to use the right website.

The blog the op linked to has been wrong several times, so I don't think it is really the best source for information about what's up coming.

Good point !! Many of us take for granted the new release schedule. Note, if you do updates using Synaptic you will get notices of new versions,
If: you have installed "Update Manager" there will be many notifications of "new releases".
