Ubuntu 16.04 is the next version of Ubuntu and also the next LTS version, which indicates for many that it will be a version with hardly any new features and very stable, which has been the tradition. Nevertheless, Ubuntu 16.04 is about to break tradition. In this case, the next LTS version will have many new features that will attract the attention of its users, especially since some new features have been requested by Ubuntu users for a long time.
Main News
The great novelty of Ubuntu 16.04 will be the possibility of be able to move the Unity bar to other parts of the desktop, this will allow us to move it to the bottom and use it as a dock. This change has almost become historical debt that some would call it.
The Plymouth will also be updated, for the first time in several years. The Plymouth It is the home screen that we see for several seconds when we turn on our system. The Ubuntu Software Center will disappear from the distribution giving way to Software for Gnome and click and snappy packages support. This will expand the software's scope for distribution, but some warn that it will make it more vulnerable if possible.
Regarding software, Brazier and Empathy will disappear but Gnome Calendar will try to keep. Ubuntu 16.04 may be the first version to remove this popular software (Brasero) that accompanied Ubuntu in almost all its versions and flavors. Click unlocking will also be installed, something tedious that Windows 10 has and that it seems that Canonical has wanted to implement in its distribution. Privacy is another point that we have already talked about and that seems not to satisfy the main detractors, the GNU Foundation.
El ZFS file system and the firmware update will be other novel points of Ubuntu 16.04 but they are functions that are not clear that they may appear in this version due to their premature development, although they will surely appear in Ubuntu throughout this year.
Conclusions about Ubuntu 16.04
These are some new features that we have confirmed but there will be more something that certifies in a certain way that Ubuntu 16.04 will not be an LTS version but quite the opposite, a consistent change in the Canonical distribution.
man to me what I would like to see the most is the installation of the photoshop base ... you have to mess it up to put it in Ubuntu ... ..

is it an LTS version… ??
yes Federico, 16.04 LTS
Hello Federico. If it is LTS.
A greeting.
How can I have that version if I have ubuntu 14.04: v sorry I'm new to this
hello milton. 16.04 comes out in April next year. the same is the 15.10 for you to try from the software update center. in my experience it is very similar to 15.04.
Milton so that you have that version I recommend that you wait until April, which is that ubuntu 16.04 comes out and then open the dash and write update when the update application comes out, it should tell you that the new version 16.04 came out da clip and follow the steps it will last a while but when I finish you will have updated to the new version greetings
this version will bring support to take advantage of the uefi quick start…. I already got rid of win I don't have double boot…. I don't know if asking for that fast function is a stupid thing ... as I see in the bios that it is ...
But if they remove the burner, how will I burn dvd and without the software store, how do I manage my installed programs and moving the bar seems silly to me?
