Ubuntu’s next releast 16.10 “Yakkety” is coming closer. That’s a great thing, but I always like to wait a while after any Ubuntu release before installing it.
It is likely that in the first weeks or even months after an official release there will still be a significant amount of updates. I like to play it safe and wait a while. Let everyone use it for a while. If there are any serious issues they will get noticed and fixed. After things calm down a bit then I like to install it.
I’ve always found not being in a hurry to be much more beneficial in the long term.
Then again, I might be so eager to switch to KDE Plasma 5.7 (and ultimately to 5.8 via backport) that I will be impulsive and switch right away!
Also, one wonders if they will be going with the predictable “Zebra” for 17.04? Zebu might be more interesting.
