Has anyone tried to dist-upgrade? Does it work well?
Around the time I was a Ubuntu user (around Hardy 8.04), dist-upgrade would usually break your box and was discouraged by Canonical themselves. If I recall correctly.

Seamless release upgrade is crucial if you want to have a high frequency (6 month) release cycle. Glad to see they made progress with this.
It's generally better than dist-upgrade anyway.
My laptop battery life jumped from 4.5hrs to 7, kernel panics with too many Chrome tabs open and/or Flash playing are a thing of the past, etc.
One of the best upgrades I've ever done.
