During the Lucid cycle, we fixed another *102* bugs before final release. Now in Maverick, **105 bugs** have been beaten into submission already!  This is the first time, in the three editions, we have managed to make a hundred changes well before [User-Interface Freeze](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserInterfaceFreeze)! A huge thank-you to all the eager patch-makers, amazing upstreams and stealth uploaders for getting us this far! We are not done yet! No! We still have time to fix more bugs for Maverick.
