Eagerly awaiting the official release
Please wait a good couple of days after release. There's no need to make the load on the servers even bigger.

Sometime on the 25th - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaringRingtail/ReleaseSchedule No - we don't know when, I'm surprised that after 7 years on the forum you've not noticed the biannual 'when's it being released' threads

Damn for some reason I was thinking today was the day. Even after 14 releases I still get exited as a new one aproaches yes
The torrent of course helps on the initial download, but still there is a peak load on the package servers when people are updating and adding new stuff.
Quite honestly Canonical should have the infrastructure available to deal with as many downloads as is necessary

Would apt-p2p help with that? It's not that hard to set up, though it does require that sources.list be edited a little.
