Ubuntu and Debian developer Iain Lane informed the Ubuntu community that the upcoming Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) operating system is in Feature Freeze as of August 18, 2016.

The Feature Freeze development stage means that no new features will be implemented in the upcoming OS, and the development team should now concentrate all of their efforts on fixing the remaining bugs before the final release of Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) hits the streets on October 13, 2016.

“In true “better late than never” fashion, Yakkety is now in Feature Freeze. Ideally you will all now be focusing on bug fixing and not on getting new features into the release. This will let us create a solid and well-groomed Yak in October that we’ll all want to take a ride on for the following nine months,” says Iain Lane in the announcement.
