THE POWER OF UBUNTU MEETS THE BEauty OF GNOME desktop.

Ubuntu GNOME is an official flavor of Ubuntu, featuring the GNOME desktop environment. Ubuntu GNOME is a mostly pure GNOME desktop experience built from the Ubuntu repositories. Three years ago, Ubuntu GNOME started as an unofficial flavor of Ubuntu - see the release notes of 12.10 - and 6 months after that, Ubuntu GNOME has become an official flavor.

Fast forward to today, and we are proud to announce the release of 15.10. This is our Non-LTS Release. If you seek stability and long support, please consider Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) LTS Release. If you want the latest software/packages that we can offer, then give Ubuntu GNOME 15.04 (Wily Werewolf) a try today.

15.10 hotfix for GRUB installations has been released. See the change log on GitHub for details.
