Fast forward to today, and Canonical is wasting no time moving from last week's release of Ubuntu 11.10 “Oneiric Ocelot” into planning for the next version, also known as “Precise Pangolin.” Perhaps most notable about Precise Pangolin is that it will be Ubuntu's fourth Long Term Support (LTS) release, with a full three years of support.
