Why is it 12.10 ?The naming convention of Ubuntu is based on its release year and release month. Now, this release is Ubuntu 12.10, so in this “12” i.e. the first two digits indicate the release year and “10” i.e. the last two digits indicate the release month. Another interesting fact about Ubuntu releases is that every year it is released twice only in April and October. So, the last two digits will always be .04 and .10.
