Version and Release Numbers
The Kubuntu version numbering scheme is based on the date we release a version of the distribution. The version number comes from the year and month of the release rather than reflecting the actual revision of the software. So, our first release (Hoary Hedgehog) was in April 2005, so its version was 5.04. The second release (Breezy Badger) was in October 2005, so its version number was 5.10. This version (Dapper Drake) was released in June 2006, so its version number is 6.06 LTS.
