Antoni Norman has announced the beta release of Pinguy OS 13.04, an Ubuntu-based distribution featuring the GNOME 3.8 desktop. Although it comes with a beta label, this is the final release in the 13.04 series as the developers keep the "stable" tag strictly for LTS (long-term support) releases. From the release announcement (as published by Web Upd8): "Pinguy OS 13.04 (based on Ubuntu 13.04) beta has been released, this being basically the final 13.04 version because Pinguy has decided to keep the 6-month releases as betas and only the LTS will be considered stable. The non-LTS releases will be using bleeding edge software, like XBMC 13.0 alpha or GNOME 3.8 / GNOME Shell 3.8 that's included in Pinguy OS 13.04, but which isn't included by default in Ubuntu 13.04 and so, it isn't considered fully stable in Ubuntu. According to a recent Pinguy OS blog post, the 6-month releases are usable, but they might not include features that will be available in the LTS.
