I met someone on IRC who had a difficult time understanding Ubuntu's release style, so I came up with the following:
[jacob] Windows beta releases come in chunks [jacob] consider that like going down a river on a tour boat that stops at sites for a few days, then keeps going to stop some more. each stop is a beta, and eventually they will arrive at the destination. [jacob] Ubuntu's release scheme is like white water rafting [jacob] you can jump in at any time, and you will constantly get hit with updates [jacob] eventually you will end up at the end; there are no "stopping points" per say, just landmarks that represent betas
Yes, I'm weird. But hey, it worked.
Cute
