,----[ Quote ]
| The Hardy Heron will be assured of LTS status it seems, making Ubuntu 8.04
| the second version of this Linux distro to get the Canonical commercial
| blessing. The decision would appear to be a simple commercial one, after all
| GNOME is far and away the most popular when it comes to downloads. Mark
| Shuttleworth, Canonical CEO, reckons it accounts for around 65% of all Ubuntu
| downloads. So where does this leave the other 35% who are loyal to KDE?
