User Story

  1. Our documentation (README, Wiki and etc) recommends Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. However, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS will reach its EOL (end of life) in April 2021 which is not too far away. As a user I'd like to be recommended with more up-to-date software.

    If Ubuntu 20.04 LTS support #2216 (Ubuntu 20.04 support) can be done in a timely manner, we could recommend Ubuntu 20.04 directly, which could save us some efforts updating the documentation. Otherwise, we need to update to 18.04 first, then 20.04 or another version later.

  • README
  • Wiki
  1. Ubuntu 16.04 is also used in our CI process -- Travis, docker and etc. We'd better update them as well.
  1. Release process
