Is it normal there is no announcement, no alpha or beta : we are at the end of the year ?  
I guess the next version will be based on Ubuntu 13.10 ?

Thanks

The next version will be based on 13.10. As Ubuntu does not offer LTS for this we will unfortunately also not offer an LTS here.  
Major changes include newer Ubuntu base (13.10) which includes newer kernel, newer Xorg and drivers. Improved theming and some other goodies and additions to the default software are planned.  
We will announce more when we actually release the system.

Yes it is normal. I guess there will be a beta announcement as soon as we reach beta status.

Yes this is true.

Thanks Pierre! You guys are doing a wonderful job. I think this is probably the best linux distro out there. Do you have any plans to to go commercial?

Its unlikely for us to maintain ourown kernel. The same goes for KDE and Libreoffice.
