+Okay, here's a kind of road map for the rest of the year.
+
+Ubuntu beta release 9/22, 800 words by 9/23
+Ubuntu final 10/13 1200 words on 10/13
+
+Mint 18.1 should be about one month after ubuntu, I'll keep you posted
+
+Fedora 25 final is due 11/15, but that will probably slip a few weeks
+
+Elementary OS doesn't have a date yet, but last year it came out in December. There's a beta out now I could use like we did last time, seemed to go over well.
+
+##Pitches
+
+I also have a few linux-related software pitches
+
+GIMP 2.9, which is a preview of the next stable release, just came out a couple weeks ago. It's got a ton of new stuff including a new theme, so it doesn't look like it crawled out of windows 95 anymore. There's also a bunch of new color calibration tools that put GIMP well ahead of Photoshop on quite a few fronts. I was thinking I could do 1000 words on what's coming in 
+
+The Kdenlive video editor had the first major release it's ever had since I've been using it (it's been at least five years since it saw a significant update). It's got some great new stuff like 3 point editing, drag and drop autosizing, and background pre-rendering. It's probably the best linux video editor at the moment.
+
+I've never done a review of Arch Linux, and since that's the main distro I use these days I was thinking it would be interesting to compare it to more mainstream releases. I think a high level look at the advantages of a rolling release distro would be an interesting piece. I was thinking 1200 words but let me know what you think.
+
+I also found a new "developer" web browser based on Chrome/Chromium that has some nice features like phone emulation, synchronized simultaneous mobile and desktop views, auto refresh and a ton of nice testing features. It's a bit like Firefox developer edition, but based on Chrome so it's fast. I thought it would be worth a quick look, say 800 words.
+
+And finally, Openstreetmap released Openstreetmap view, which is a community-powered version of google street view. You can record tracks with GPD and video and upload them to openstreetmap. : https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/mvexel/diary/39274 Pretty cool alternative to Google Street View, I could get you 800 words on this pretty quick.
