[clue] Future directions for Ubuntu Studio

[Lorin Ricker]

Hmmm... On further reflection/consideration of your remarks, David, I 
concede your points.  Mine were/are based only upon the frustration of 
seeing things-that-used-to-work break on new releases (this *never* 
happened with VMS!) ;-)

And perhaps I don't (yet) understand the implicit linkage between 
Canonical's X.xx releases and the package distro/repositories -- Can't 
applications be upgraded without being so closely tied to the Ubuntu 
release?
