All its Alpha and Beta releases have ensured the fixing of majority of the bugs arising during user testing. We expect the final version to be released soon to incorporate a new look and feel in the Ubuntu Line-Up.
The new version will be available around October of 2012. But the Alpha and Beta versions besides the Release Candidate version will all be available before the release of the final version in December.
