Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal Alpha 1 released
The first alpha Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal is released.
Since this is only the first alpha, there are still many packages and features in active development. And of course, much still has time to change before the April release.
This is one of the most significant changes. Considering that work on it was started only in October, the progress achieved is quite impressive.

Moving from Mutter to Compiz was, of course, a good decision.
The panel can be configured to automatically hide.
If for some reason you want to return to the traditional Ubuntu design, simply select “Ubuntu Classic Desktop” in the menu before logging in to the system.
A few minor changes have been made to the sound menu, including new control buttons.
The most significant change for most users is probably a change to traditional panel applets; Applications using the old system tray are now in a difficult position.
If you feel brave enough, you can download Natty Alpha 1, as well as see a encouragingly long list of known issues - ubuntu.com/testing/natty/alpha1 .
