Ubuntu 20.04 LTS which is due to be released on April 23, 2020
[omgubuntu.co.uk...]

Plenty of new goodies will be added.
The big one for me is:
Python 3.8.2

18.04 ships with Python 3.6. There have been some big step ups with Python 3.7 in terms of asyncio and ordered dicts. So 3.8 will be nice.

On the less fun side, this will require a few upgrades, so let's hope there are no issues with the rest of the software used.

The fun never ends...

This release is based on the 5.4 kernel which is a longterm maintenance kernel released less than half a year ago. Such a new kernel means that hardware support for newer hardware will be excellent.
