Ubuntu developers may just focus on some important releases, like the next Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) or the new Ubuntu Touch for mobile devices, but they also involve projects like Mir and Unity 8.

Currently, this generation of Ubuntu uses the Unity 7 desktop environment, but the new generation has been brewing for a long time. Together with the new display service, it is already in the Ubuntu mobile version, but it will eventually be taken to the desktop.

Kevin Gunn, the leader of the two projects, often published some progress information from developers and some changes this week, although these are rough.

According to the message from the development team, some questions about the touch/trigger angle have been fixed, and several translation problems have been fixed. Some Dash UI problems have been fixed, at present, the team is developing Mir 0.8 and Mir 0.7.2 will be upgraded, and some high-priority bug processing is also in progress.

You can [Download Ubuntu Next] [7] to experience the new features of Unity 8 and Mir, but it is not stable enough. It takes some time to mature.
