Hmm... Perhaps I jumped the gun by linking to this. This looks like a draft of announcement to be released later (today, hopefully).

Yes, it's the draft release notes.

Yeah, the URL for the Release Notes [0] -- as of now -- clearly states:

> Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will be released on April 26.

> Ubuntu 18.04 LTS HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED YET and is not recommended for use on production systems or on your primary computers yet.

While it's probably safe to assume that it will be announced today as expected, there's always a chance that they will find something that causes them to change their mind at the last minute.

I would certainly hold off on hitting the "upgrade" button until it's official, though. (I, personally, wait a lot longer than that. YMMV.)
