Hello Lubuntu Communications Team and Lubuntu users,

I have used the "Contact" link of LXLE's website to complain about such an
early release. LXLE has obviously confused official release announcements
by Ubuntu Release Team with lsb_release and DistroWatch information. The
version number (12.04.3) confuses everyone.
