As a user and developer, I just hit this situation and expected -d to mean
devel because that's what the manpage of do-release-upgrade says.
It would be ideal to:
* Not nag the 18.04 users to update to 20.04 until 20.04.1 release is out (this
is the current behavior)
* Allow users on 18.04 (or
The release notes have been fixed to document the need for -d until the
point release.
I categorically disagree that we should message an LTS-to-LTS upgrade,
prior to the first point release, as anything other than "development".
During each LTS cycle, we are routinely fixing critical upgrade bugs

Just to interject, people rightfully believe do-release-upgrade (without
-d) will upgrade them to Focal, because that's what the Release Notes
say.

IMHO, It's either released or it's not. I like @wxl comment
I agree with the idea that the machinery should offer a new release only
when we really consider it stable, which we define as having a point
release. In other words, if a user does nothing and they're on 18.04,

release file for the 'Supported' field. In the event that the Supported
is set to 0 then everyone is prompted to upgrade. We don't set it to
Supported yet deliberately so that we can get these enthusiasts to test
