Ubuntu announced the 10.04 Netbook Edition and Ubuntu for ARM products
18 months ago, on April 29, 2010. At that time, Ubuntu committed to
ongoing security and critical fixes for a period of 18 months for these
specific products.

This support period is now ending, and on October 29, 2011 the 10.04
Netbook Edition and Ubuntu for ARM products will no longer be supported.
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Desktop and Server products continue to be supported.

The upgrade path from Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook and ARM is to Ubuntu 10.10.
Instructions and caveats for the upgrade may be found at

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS for Desktop and Server products continues to be
actively supported with security updates and select high-impact bug
fixes. All announcements of official security updates for Ubuntu
releases are sent to the ubuntu-security-announce mailing list,
information about which may be found at

https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-announce.

Since its launch in October 2004 Ubuntu has become one of the most
highly regarded Linux distributions with millions of users in homes,
schools, businesses and governments around the world. Ubuntu is Open
Source software, costs nothing to download, and users are free to
customise or alter their software in order to meet their needs.

“Be brief, be pointed, let your matter stand lucid in order, solid and
at hand; spend not your words on trifles but condense; strike with the
mass of thought, not drops of sense; press to the close with vigor,
once begun, and leave – how hard the task” – Joseph Story

The Ubuntu team is proud to announce the release of Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS,
the third maintenance update to Ubuntu’s 10.04 LTS release. This
release includes updated server, desktop, alternate installation CDs
and DVDs for the i386 and amd64 architectures.

Update to WordPress 3.2

Updates all my blogs to the new WordPress 3.2.
Pay attention as this needs at least PHP 5.2.4. CentOS still uses 5.1.6 in standard installs, you’ll need to upgrade it to php53 package. But you’ll might run into problems with your installed templates. So take care.
