Thanks for clearing up that misconception, Daniel (at least for me; I
thought there was at least a sizable team employed by Canonical). I'll be
happy to run these versions and do some testing. I'll looking forward to
19.04/19.10, so I'll see how they are in their current state and report any
bugs I find.
