UGR 0.3.0 "Centaurus" released
This much anticipated release brings UGR closer to beta. It is imperative that anyone using UGR 0.0.1 or 0.0.2 upgrade immediately, as 0.0.X users may lose support in coming updates. Additionally, it is recommended that 0.1.0 and 0.2.0 users upgrade, as well. Centaurus includes code fixes and a new text-based plymouth theme. To maintain compatibility on all systems, it is also recommended that you update all packages at the same time as UGR using apt-get. |

Give us a name!
We originally started off with the name UGR/Ubuntu GNOME Remix as a temporary measure, but it has stuck. Now, we want to set in stone the official project name. If you have a launchpad account, you can vote in our poll to help us decide: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugnometeam/+poll/project-name |

Announcing the dev channel
We've added a development preview channel to our project to facilitate easier testing and code contribution. The code in dev is often more unstable than the main releases, but it's the first place to get new features and bugfixes. To install it, see the dev channel page.
