My plan is:
- I’ll deploy the Ubuntu 18.04 branch (“ubuntu_bionic”) for my own personal email and make fixes as I see problems, hopefully next week.
- Some of those changes may end up as changes on the master branch that will apply to Ubuntu 14.04 as well.
- I’ll then post a new release still based on Ubuntu 14.04 but having those fixes. I expect this will be around the end of September.
- I’ll also then post a beta of the ubuntu_bionic branch, probably early October.
- We’ll let folks try it and post issues for a few months.
- Then we’ll recommend everyone use Ubuntu 18.04 and will phase out support for Ubuntu 14.04.
