Ubuntu MATE 16.10 was a transitional release, in every sense, and 17.04 concludes the upheaval of migrating to GTK3+. This has been a release focused on refining the distro and sweating the details. As always, we’re never finished and eager to start work on 17.10 to bring you futher improvements and refinement. But for now, we hope you enjoy Ubuntu MATE 17.04 as much as we’ve enjoyed making it for you. </div> <div class="post-card-read-more">Read more...</div> </a> <a class="post-card old" href="/blog/ubuntu-mate-zesty-beta2/"> <h3 class="post-card-title">Ubuntu MATE 17.04 Beta 2</h3> <div class="blog-metadata"> <span class="post-category dev"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewbox="0 0 576 512"><path d="M571.31 193.94l-22.63-22.63c-6.25-6.25-16.38-6.25-22.63 0l-11.31 11.31-28.9-28.9c5.63-21.31.36-44.9-16.35-61.61l-45.25-45.25c-62.48-62.48-163.79-62.48-226.28 0l90.51 45.25v18.75c0 16.97 6.74 33.25 18.75 45.25l49.14 49.14c16.71 16.71 40.3 21.98 61.61 16.35l28.9 28.9-11.31 11.31c-6.25 6.25-6.25 16.38 0 22.63l22.63 22.63c6.25 6.25 16.38 6.25 22.63 0l90.51-90.51c6.23-6.24 6.23-16.37-.02-22.62zm-286.72-15.2c-3.7-3.7-6.84-7.79-9.85-11.95L19.64 404.96c-25.57 23.88-26.26 64.19-1.53 88.93s65.05 24.05 88.93-1.53l238.13-255.07c-3.96-2.91-7.9-5.87-11.44-9.41l-49.14-49.14z"></path></svg> Development Update </span> <span class="post-date"> 2017-03-23 </span> <span class="post-author"> Martin Wimpress </span> </div> <div class="post-card-excerpt"> We’re absolutely chuffed to bits to announce, what is quite possibly, the best Ubuntu MATE beta we’ve ever released.
