“Last week, we had the pleasure of talking to Evan
Dandrea, Software Engineer on the Foundations Team at Canonical,
about the upcoming installer of the Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat)
operating system. Evan Dandrea is the creator of the Migration
Assistant functionality in the Ubuntu installer (Ubiquity) and also
co-maintainer of Ubiquity and maintainer of the USB Startup Disk
Creator application.

“Through this article, we would like to inform all current and
future Ubuntu users that the next release, dubbed Maverick Meerkat,
will have a completely revamped and accessible (by Linux beginners)
installer. Even if it is not a complete rewrite, the Ubuntu
installer will be intuitive and have an attractive interface.”
