After a long time of enjoying the bliss of ignorance I've been reading up a bit on the developments in the land of desktop environments.
One thing I didn't find was whether there will still be (a need for) a separate netbook edition once Unity becomes the default environment on the Ubuntu desktop.
Surely someone here can tell me what I need to know?

Judging by Gerry Carr's Canonical Blog post as of Ubuntu 11.04 there will no longer be separate Ubuntu versions.
Even the name will simply be Ubuntu instead of Ubuntu Desktop Edition in the future.
