IrcsomeBot1<acheronuk> I've change our download page to match the message on the ubuntu one, discouaging 17.10 downloads until the lenevo bios curruption issue has been fixed11:09
IrcsomeBot1<acheronuk> Also added to release notes: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtfulAardvark/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu#Incompatibility_with_BIOS_in_certain_Lenovo.2C_Acer_systems11:15
IrcsomeBot1<acheronuk> Also seriously wondering wthere to re-visit the idea of dropping PIM (or some of the worst parts of of it) from our defaults.11:58
IrcsomeBot1<acheronuk> For example, I have noticed a bit of an uptick in reports of issues with kmail in versions 17.08 and 17.1211:58
IrcsomeBot1<tsimonq2> @acheronuk, +112:27
