[Freeswitch-users] Why not Ubuntu

Basically it's because Ubuntu updates itself constantly with newer
kernels and newer system libs where FreeSWITCH is not heavily tested.

The recommendation is only for those expecting to ask our community
for help.  We only have limited resources and we have found several
instabilities with bleeding distros so it's a use at your own risk
policy.  There are some ubuntu users who package it and provide them
for download.  So if you run into some problems you will have a
smaller pool from which to draw support.
