Are There Any Known Issues Upgrading To Yakkety?

Either 16.04 is the least stable LTS that I have experienced or my current hardware is to blame.
Either way, I am thinking of upgrading to 16.10 and also the kernel to 4.9

Is there any technical reason why I shouldn't upgrade to Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety) under the hood?
Will it cause problems with any Zorin applications?
e.g. because they have been tested with the 16.04 dependencies and the newer ones might break things.

Has anyone updated to 16.10?
What good/bad experiences did you have?

You can't upgrade to 16.10 or any version of Ubuntu without breaking your install. Latest kernel got installed through the updates yesterday as did Zorin base so you may well be up to equivalent of 16.10 without even realising it. ;) :D

I did upgrade but as Swarf mentioned you break your install. I originated from Zorin 10, now runnin 16.10 and could not be happier.
The negative side was that i was on my own when doing that and had fix it too. The positive is that im running now just what i want.
