Oi, Mint 18.1! KEEP UP! Ubuntu LTS love breeds a laggard
The Linux Mint project dropped a last-minute gift during the Christmas period – Mint 18.1.
Mint 18.1 builds on the same Ubuntu LTS release base as Mint 18.0, the result being a smooth upgrade path for 18.0 users and the relative stability of Ubuntu's latest LTS effort, 16.04.
In keeping with Ubuntu's LTS releases, Mint isn't stuck chasing Ubuntu updates. Rather the project can pursue its own efforts like the homegrown Cinnamon and MATE desktops, and the new X-Apps set of default applications.
