1 day to go...

[LazyLion]

It's imminent !!!!! come on!

I think I see it!!! It is peeping out from behind the Ubuntu headquarters! But it is a little bit shy... never having been out in public before. All you greedy men wanting to get your hands on it is making it very nervous!!!

 

[chiskop]

How can it be nervous? It's hardy, after all.

* was thinking of being mean and saying ITS HERE GO GET IT NOW *

Anyway is there daylight savings or something? What's the hold-up.

Who wants to bet on a time? I say at 13:05pm SA time it will be there

 

[koffiejunkie]

Daylight savings time makes it earlier, not later. And yes there is - EST is GMT-4, CST is GMT-5 at the moment. PST (Pacifict time), which I suspect is where it will be released, is usually GMT-8, so they're on GMT-7 right now.

You guys reckon this is the beta version?

EDIT: I found it while playing around with the URL and finding their webserver directory list thingy so I don't know

 

[chiskop]

Nothing on ubuntu.com yet.

It's the final version. Here's kubuntu: http://se.cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-kde4/releases/8.04/release/

 

[Jonny Two Shoes]

HA HA are you serious??

If it is then we are sly buggers

 

[Swift-wp]

Although it doesn't mention that it's released on the sites, it is. Here's ubuntu: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ . Sorry i have no local links yet...

My bad! When i checked on there it still had the RC, but it's the final now.

The Ubuntu site still says coming soon...

http://www.ubuntu.com/

Muhahaha. The kubuntu and ubuntu sites doesn't even have hardy on their download list yet...

Apart from having it on the network, I find that torrent.ubuntu.com is pretty damn fast.
