The Ubuntu 7.04 release candidate (due today) has been delayed due to
bugs discovered during validation testing, specifically problems with
certain ATA chipsets and problems with the connection status displayed
by the network-manager panel applet. There is no updated ETA yet, but
the core development team is actively working on the problems and expect
it to be a matter of days.

We’ll put out a further announcement when more is known, and in the
meantime we ask our testing community to stay alert for notices of
specific changes that need to be tested.

Thanks,
