Noel,

Yes, 3.0.1 will be what ships in Jaunty. As you will notice in their release schedule that you posted they claim to be targeting March 29 which is already after our Beta release. However they generally slip about 6 weeks from their original scheduled release date, which would put their real release date at around May 10, which is long after our release on April 23. An example of these release schedule slips have been 2.4.0, 3.0.0 and now 3.0.1. Even though 3.0.0 slipped a lot in release schedule they still had many major bugs in the release. So many that while 3.0.1 was supposed to be released on Dec 2 it won't actually be released until sometime after Jan 15, and that is only if they stop finding new MAJOR bugs in 3.0.0.
