Changing the world -- one desktop at a time

Is anyone interested in testing 0.4? I am this burning desire to get it running this coming week. I have just to make the file share pretty and it should be OK to test.

Then I can concentrate on that pesky mouse freeze thing.

Frankly - the more testing people are prepared to do the faster I can get it stable.

So - please - I know time is precious - but I believe it is for a good cause :) Consider the scenario:

Alex: My Mr XYZ (son's IT teacher) do you realise that your school could save thousands by not buying MS.
XYZ: Yes - I guess maybe - but I've never had the time to look into Linux and see if it is any good for the stuff we're teaching.
Alex: No problem, just install Qubuntu, and review Linux from inside Windows, no dual boot or anything, it just runs like an application. If you like it, you can bob it on a laptop and show the 'powers that be'.
XYZ: OK that would be good - thanks. Hey, if this works, we could plough that saved money into getting new computers for the kids.

You see my point ;)

Alex: Two thoughts
1. I would be interested in testing this later this week.
2. I will be attending the Ubuntu LIVE conference Aug. 22 in Portland and can dig up testers for you there. Let me know if that's of interest to you.

Thanks!

I am a bit busy this week as we are going on holiday for two weeks starting at the weekend. But I will try very hard to get 0.4 out v.soon after I get back.
