I'm already testing the new version of Ubuntu 15.10 Wily called Werewolf, interesting name, who will Wily ...
For me there is a big difference with the version 14.10. If several programs are updated to the latest version and the new version brings the main novelty Linux kernel 4.2, a novelty which among other things permits you to use the Steam control.
They have improved compatibility with AMDGPU driver, but for users of Intel is not a big why.
The graphics and 3D effects have improved, especially the scrollbar mind.
I liked the intelligent search dare one word you see all kinds of documents they have it.
Now with OpenStack Liberty, system administrators are going to be easier when working in the interface names and clouds.
Personal mind I'm waiting for Unity 8, perhaps in 1610.

Thought of the day by Aristotle
First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an
objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom,
money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end.
