Today, Canonical announced the availability of the first Alpha release of the upcoming Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) operating system, but only for opt-in flavors that are willing to participate in the Alpha milestones.
Ubuntu 17.10 continues the tradition of the popular and free Linux-based operating system to offer two Alpha and Beta milestones during its entire development cycle.
