Given the volume of bugs that are coming out of linux land these days, I'd be in favour of waiting a month or two. There's been a few vulnerabilities that have only affected 10.10 recently (Kat said there was a libpam one, etc) - this on top of the pile of holes that have affected everything.
Also, do any of our packages need to be tested for 10.10? Upstart might kick up another tantrum or two, there's bound to be more stuff that's been moved over to that recently.

I would agree that allowing a week or two to allow things to "settle down" a bit. There always seems to be a slew of threads on the ubuntu forums about bugs within the first few weeks of a release. I don't think anyone is in dire need of the latest release of ubuntu right away anyway, so it would probably be prudent to hold off a little while.
I think this seems to be the general consensus on this, and I also agree on it. Hold off for a week/two and then upgrade. We could probably do it, if we think it's ready to go, when we're having downtime anyway. Austin
