“Once the release is publicised on the American
technology news accumulation site Slashdot (one of the few times
when Slashdot links to something as soon as it happens; most of its
borrowed, US-centric, insular “news” is generally anything from two
to 10 days old and an insult to any genuine nerd) the lemmings who
frequent the site will grab onto one of the many teats that provide
a download of 9.04 and start sucking.“What’s new in Ubuntu 9.04? There is a new point version of
GNOME – 2.26 comes with Brasero as the default application for
burning discs and improved handling of multiple monitors.“Exactly what kind of crowd is waiting for these features and
unable to go to sleep without them?“There is a new point version of X.org, Wacom tablet
hot-plugging is available, there is a new style of notifications, a
new point version of the kernel, and support for the ext4
filesystem.”
