Does Ubuntu still shill out personal data to Amazon?
And I (think?) this is the release where dash ads are default off.
Do people actually use jigdo?
I don't know about everyone else, but for me "released" means I can download it from the official location - http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop and that is not the case yet.

They never gave out personal information, they just covered your dash with ads and clicking them gave Canonical affiliate revenue. They routed the searches through their servers to prevent Amazon from associating searches and IPs when they go to the actual site. And I (think?) this is the release where dash ads are default off.
The dash shouldn't be sending any user information to begin with.
I get that Canonical needs to get profitable fast, so personally I think they should take the RedHat road and release 'Ubuntu Enterprise' or something to that effect.

The 14.04 release has quite clearly shown that they have the expertise and industry collaboration to get the ball rolling on that.
At this point this is a link to beta 2 from March.

For some reason your other comment explaining this is [dead]. Can't see any reason why though.
Tried to find some sort of release notes, best thing I could find was this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes If someone has a better link, please share!
