Neon on 18.04

[John Hubbard]

With the Ubuntu 18.04 GA release just under a month away I am curious what
the update process will look like for existing system and when a Neon 18.04
release will be available for fresh installs.

I believe that the default Ubuntu behavior is to leave existing LTS
installs alone until the first point release (18.04.1) which comes 3 months
after the .0 release.  Will Neon behave the same way?

I believe that it is possible to force the upgrade to the new LTS prior to
the first point release.  When might one expect all of the neon packages to
be in place for an upgrade to Neon 18.04?  What is the recommended place to
watch for announcements about Neon 18.04?

In addition to my existing systems I'm in the process of obtaining a new
machine.  I'll be performing a fresh OS install when it arrives.  Will an
updated installation ISO likely be one of the first things that rolls out
or will I be better served by installing Neon 16.04 and doing an in place
upgrade when Neon 18.04 is available?

Is it appropriate to call this Neon 18.04 or is there some other preferred
name.

p.s. I really appreciate the work that you guys do in putting this release
out; its great.

To be or not to be, that is the question
                2b || !2b
(0b10)*(0b1100010) || !(0b10)*(0b1100010)
        0b11000100 || !0b11000100
        0b11000100 ||  0b00111011
               0b11111111
255, that is the answer.
