Of course, but that then makes the CD pointless to me.

Isn't Canonical based in South Africa? I don't recall from the last release, but I would assume it will release at midnight local time for Canonical.

Mark Shuttleworth is South African but where Canonical is based I don't know... The ShipIT cd's I got last time came from France (if memory serves)... can't even find any info on the ubuntu forums on a release time...

Ubuntu 9:10, known as Karmic Koala, has officially been launched at Ubuntu.

(Correction: This story was timed to the original launch date specified by Ubuntu. There has apparently been a slight delay and, as of 9 AM Eastern, the site only said the software was “coming soon” while the beta remained available.)

lol... even the media being made liars... allo Ubuntu... what, we back on Africa time again?!
