Jordanhill railway station (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordanhill_railway_station), it was the millionth english article on wikipedia. It is a few miles from where I live. - http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Press_releases/English_Wikipedia_Publishes_Millionth_Article
It says:

I took that picture myself, so no credit due.

Thanks for clearing it out Bruce, I can only see Jordanhill. And a Happy Dapper Eve to all !!!!! :cool:

I just realised, the countdown script I made to count down to my birthday doubles as a dapper script!

Happy Dapper!

Thanks to all community for making this a great distro.

[gingermark]

There really is a bit of a party feel on this forum right now - or am I just really sad and imagining it? :) I think the 2 month delay may have something to do with it.

Nevertheless, rejoice in the Dapper! The best OS, and the best community!

[bruce89]

It's like Hogmanay all over again!

I just pictured the feeling Window's fans will have when Vista finally comes out...

I can fell the tension . . . just another 20 minutes.
Happy Dapper Eve to one and all

lol, everyone can get frustrated with the new year's arrival, but even so they don't miss the opportunity to make a party. If there are fans (and there are) they must be veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery anxious.

[kingmonkey]

Wow Edgy will be out in 4 months!!! I though it would be 6.12

[Rackerz]

Yeah me too. But they didn't want to change the release cycle. The developers have got a lot of work to do since 2 months has been taken off them.

Is that the official Ubuntu channel?

[Harold P]

I think people would be wanting this (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/115/)...

[henriquemaia]

Is that the official Ubuntu channel?

I think so. I followed Breezy's release there also.

Wow! Nice. Wonderful tip. Thanks.

With the difference that Christmas arrives at 00:00...

[Rackerz]

With the difference that Christmas arrives at 00:00...

The differences Dapper wont actually arrive in 9 minutes, according to the IRC channel :).

Now we just have to wait and see who knows best: #ubuntu or The Fridge.

[bruce89]

Mind you there isn't a christmas channel on IRC.

[Rackerz]

2 minutes.

[bvanaerde]

Mind you there isn't a christmas channel on IRC.
And christmas isn't free either (with all the presents you have to buy...)

[henriquemaia]

Now we just have to wait and see who knows best: #ubuntu or The Fridge.

#ubuntu won.

[Rackerz]

Indeed.

[Iandefor]

Merry Dapper's Eve, one and all! Let's hope St. Dapper drops many presents down our ethernet cables this merry, merry evening!

[bruce89]

Well, Dapper Day now.

[ronlybonly]

Dangit! I was going to post a thread with the exact same title, but you beat me too it.
