Why documentation says release is 11.04 instead of 10.10

Question

I went to the desktop menu and opened System->About Ubuntu to read more. It says You are using Ubuntu 11.04 when I am using 10.10. Why is that so?

Update: This has been fixed!

• It's a bug.
• Run lsb_release -a in terminal, and it will show you the correct version that you are using.
