开发者发行版：Ubuntu 7.10 Alpha 1

Ubuntu Linux是一份完整的桌面Linux操作系统，它可免费获得，并带有社团及专业的支持。Ubuntu社团按照Ubuntu宣言里所铭记的思想而组建：软件应免费提供，软件工具应能以人们本地语种的形式可用且不牺牲任何功能，人们应拥有定制及改变他们软件的自由，这包括以任何他们认为适宜的方式。 Ubuntu是一个古非洲语单词，意指对他人的博爱。Ubuntu Linux发行将这种博爱之心带到了软件的世界中。

Martin Pitt has announced the first alpha release (also referred to as "Tribe 1") of Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon": "Welcome to Gutsy Gibbon Tribe 1, which will in time become Ubuntu 7.10. Tribe 1 is the first in a series of milestone CD images that will be released throughout the Gutsy development cycle. The primary changes from Feisty have been the re-merging of changes from Debian. Common to all variants, we have upgraded the kernel to 2.6.22." Read the release announcement and visit the distribution's testing page for a detailed list of changes updates.
