Public bug reported:
When I browse to the Ubuntu website there is no information about the
upcoming 11.10 release. This should be advertised about 4 weeks in
advance to get people aware that it's coming and of the release date.
Hype should be built up about it to get people interested in the new
features and probably encouraged to try the betas out if they can to
help out. There was a section a couple of weeks ago about the beta but
it contained very little information about the release and was not as
well presented as it could be. The website look fantastic and it
wouldn't take someone long to put a page together stating the new
features with a release date. All successful products do this and
Microsoft and Apple both start advertising their new released a few
weeks in advance to spread the word its coming. The page should be
graphical and nicely laid out like the one that describes the current
release to show people clearly what is coming and not just list out a
block of text about it with bullet points. This works for techies but
doesn't appeal to the average user who wants things to look nice and see
new features that make Ubuntu more appealing to use. The work that is
done is excellent so lets see the front page shout about it!!!
