I don't exactly suffer from "versionitis" (I have Debian/unstable+experimental for that), but I do like to help by testing newer development builds of distros on the variety of machines I have available at my disposal. Only thing is, I can't seem to find any information anywhere leading me to being able to do so with the next release of Trisquel.

Since Trisquel is built from Ubuntu LTS releases, and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is on its way to be released soon, I was hoping there would be a way to test Trisquel 8 in its development state.

Any help pointing me in the right direction would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

You can't find anything because it doesn't exist yet, and probably won't until after Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) is out the door. I don't think it's even been named yet. That's obviously the most important part of a new version, right? :) Trisquel versions are named are Celtic gods. So for now, helping Xenial be the best it can be will also help Trisquel in the end.
