Sweet! So … guess I’ll skip installing that 17.10 Alpha .iso I downloaded yesterday 
Thinking about building a Frankenstein box from hardware in my garage so I can try to keep up. That HUD thingy must be tried.

I am using the Ubuntu 17.04 MATE tweak for the Cupertino desktop. Is that still available for the new Ubuntu MATE 17.1? Is it simple to update an installed Ubuntu MATE 17.04 to 17.10?
Everyone involved (especially Wimpy) have done an amazing job at improving this distro. Thank you for all that you do to better our computing experience! I can’t express enough gratitude for your dedication to this project.

Really quite excellent! I’ve now installed Beta 1 on my main box after running Alpha for some time on my test rig. Thank you for your hard work.
