Hey i was just wondering does anyone know when the next version of Ubuntu is going to be released? I'm sure i heard something about someone time in October is this correct?

And does anyone know what changes will be added and what will it be called etc. Pretty much does anyone have any information about the next update for Ubuntu thanks.

I'm looking forward to Gutsy. Feisty Fawn has been great thus far, in fact it's been my longest lived Linux install. I've had a lot of different distros in the past, but none have had the longevity Feisty had.
