I realize this question is a bit of a duplicate, but stack exchange won't let me comment on other questions/answers until you have 50 reputation, which seems a bit silly because it means the only way I can ask for or add clarification to an existing question is to open a whole new one.

This post asks the same question:

Why does do-release-upgrade on 12.04 system not find 14.04.1 upgrade?

But people keep saying "Wait for the point release." Yet if you read the question, the user did in fact specify the fact that the point release has been released. 14.04.1 has been out for 2 weeks today, and I still get this when I try to upgrade:

jeremy@server:~$ date
Fri Aug  8 09:38:28 CDT 2014
jeremy@server:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade 
Checking for a new Ubuntu release
No new release found

I don't want to use the -d or -p option to do-release-upgrade. I want to upgrade in the most correct/supported way possible. if I need to wait I'll wait. But I'm perplexed as to why it's been 2 weeks since the first LTS point release (14.04.1) has been released and my 12.04 systems still don't see it as an available upgrade path?

If the answer is wait, do we know why we're waiting or for how long?

Looks like Update Manager is now prompting me to upgrade. I didn't even need to go to the command line.

I'd still like to know why it took 3 weeks from the release of 14.04.1 to get pushed out, or at least how to anticipate when it was getting pushed out.

It's hard to plan upgrades when you have no idea when the upgrade is going to be available.
