I'm looking at the image channel guide for developers of Ubuntu Snappy Core. The only release available is 15.04. To me this seems odd; on the desktop and server side there has been a 15.10 and a 16.04 release since the 15.04. Does Ubuntu Snappy not follow the release convention? When can one expect a new release?

Maybe you have missed it ... Ubuntu snap support comes pre-installed in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Canonical unveils 6th LTS release of Ubuntu with 16.04 - Introduces “snaps” for new robust secure app format. Check out which applications are available by executing -> snap find.
Execute snap --help to get a list of currently available commands. When you want to run snappy images the way you used to do it before, you can download the latest versions here.
