Ubuntu announced the release of 6.10 almost 18 months ago, on October
 26, 2006. As with the earlier releases, Ubuntu committed to ongoing
 security and critical fixes for a period of 18 months. The support
 period is now nearing its end and Ubuntu 6.10 will reach end of life
 on Friday April 25th, 2008. At that time, Ubuntu Security Notices will
 no longer include information or updated packages for Ubuntu 6.10.

 The supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 6.10 is via Ubuntu 7.04.
 Instructions and caveats for the upgrade may be found at
 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades. Note that upgrades
 to version 7.10 and beyond are only supported in multiple steps, via
 an upgrade first to 7.04, then to 7.10. Both Ubuntu 7.04 and Ubuntu 7.10
 continue 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.
