Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) Released!
The stable version of Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron has just been released a couple of minutes ago. It's the first Long Term Support (LTS) release since Ubuntu 6.04 Dapper Drake.
What we saw with the last major Ubuntu release we are seeing now again. Major amounts of bandwidth are being pumped everywhere in the world. In South Africa, the mirrors also seem to be taking the strain but luckily people like Andrew Alston are keeping a close eye on the situation. In an e-mail to the Ubuntu South African Local Community List, he mentioned:
Currently the combined outbound bandwidth to Ubuntu Users is pushing in excess of 500mbit between the two locations.
For South Africa, that's pretty hectic, but it just comes to show how many Ubuntu-loving Linux users there are in this country. After all, the name "ubuntu" means much more to us than to most people of the world!
