Comment 15 for bug 381650

Vikram,

Thanks for your work on this. It's a clever solution, but would require us to do some extra work to redirect the user to the relevant version. I also don't have the technical knowledge to determine whether this is full proof enough for a wide variety of browsers used and probably the code would need review by the Canonical security team to ensure that it is suitable for the website.

I wonder if the simpler solution for now isn't just to provide a short explanation of how to determine the version for those users who are not already familiar with that. E.g. "To find out which version of Ubuntu you are using, click System->About Ubuntu".

What do others think?
