 not... 20.10 is a interim release which is only supported for 9 months and thus doesn't have point releases and no new iso's. 20.04 is a LTS release which is supported for 5 years from the moment it has been released but get's point releases. (re @John: How does this affect version 20.10?)

 Thanks so the 20.10 release will not have any of the updates that 20.04.2 will have?
 20.10 has it's own updates (re @John: Thanks so the 20.10 release will not have any of the updates that 20.04.2 will have?)
 Oh
 I'm usually 20.10 has a QA tester and report any issues thinking that all fixes will go into 21.04.
 21.04 will be a brand new release with newer software packages and a newer kernel and will also be a interim release with support for 9 monts, just like 21.10 will be. 22.04 will be the next LTS release.
 The bugfixes you get in 20.10 you wont see in 21.04
 and so on.
 Hmm
 So why bother using 20.10?
 just read some more about the releases done in the link i gave you, more info can be found in the docs on the web
 because some people love to switch to a newer version of Ubuntu and wnat newer packages. Others stick to the LTS release. (re @John: So why bother using 20.10?)
 because some people love to switch to a newer version of Ubuntu and want newer packages. Others stick to the LTS release. (edited) (re @John: So why bother using 20.10?)
 I will, I just wanted to get my dumb questions out of the way, thanks.
 there are no dumb questions 😉
 and you're welcome
 Oh, just you wait until I read the document.
 BTW, what kind of testing are you folks doing?
 i'm sure you'll figure it all out, i'm off to bed
 Later

 o/
 I read the docs, they made sense. I will focus my QA testing on Xubuntu, because is what I use most for dev testing and for my 8 year old laptop that I use when I travel for light weight activities. (re @Maik_aD: o/)
 John cool. Have fun :)
