The release candidate for Mythbuntu based on Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbons was released some days ago.
It is mainly a bug-fix release, but there are also two new features:
More optimized builds of mythtv
Support for adding medibuntu packages directly from mythbuntu-control-centre
Ubuntu 7.10 is scheduled for release on October 18th, so we should see Mythbuntu 7.10 within a week.
