Only some small issues with switching workspaces on my laptop. It's good that they're willing to delay for a quality release.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm fine with that, we are not in a hurry.
Yes, I prefer them to wait for releases. Often those releases don't really have such changes that are fundamental to my workflow but at times do have the potential to disrupt it. On my workstation I always wait a while before updating anyway, as I did experience problems upgrading from time to time.
Not surprising. They're almost always overly optimistic about their schedule, never by much tho.
Been running 43 server and workstation for a few weeks. No significant issues. YMMV.
Had several issues when upgrading to 41, so I only upgraded to 42 a month or two ago in order to give them time to iron out the bugs first..
I had strange video crashing bugs on my laptop with 41. 42 has been rock solid for me. Was thinking of staying there for a while anyways.
