Ubuntu 10.04: Canonical Makes ISV Push
,----[ Quote ]
| And so it begins. As Canonical puts the
| finishing touches on Ubuntu 10.04 â a long
| term support (LTS) release â the company
| also is reaching out to potential Linux
| server and desktop software partners. In
| fact, Canonical says there are at least 10
| reasons why ISVs should embrace Ubuntu
| Desktop Edition, and nine reasons why
| developers should embrace Ubuntu Server
| Edition. Will partners embrace Canonicalâs
| Ubuntu pitch? Here are some thoughts.
|
| First, a little background. Canonical
| views Ubuntu 10.04 (code named Lucid Lynx)
| a prime opportunity for application
| developers to build long-term business and
| customer relationships on Ubuntu Linux.

Ubuntu One Music Store vs Amazon
,----[ Quote ]
| I have to say I have been very under
| excited by the news of the Ubuntu One
| Music store - Im not convinced we need
| another music store unless they are going
| to give us something that other stores
| dont - like flac support or something.
|
| Ive just been reading Popeys blog about
| how to use the Ubuntu One Music Store and
| I have to say, unless Im missing something
| - what a massive FAF!

Canonical betas Ubuntu music store
,----[ Quote ]
| According to an Ubuntu wiki FAQ, the
| Ubuntu One Music Store will offer DRM-free
| and watermark-free MP3s provided by the
| London-based online music outfit 7digital.
| The store will integrate with the existing
| Ubuntu RhythmBox music player, and at some
| point, it will also be available as a
| plug-in for Banshee, Amarok, and "a few
| other" third-party applications.

Ubuntu Desktop in the Cloud
,----[ Quote ]
| For the past few releases, Canonical has
| put quite a bit of energy into making
| Ubuntu a first-class OS for use in the
| cloud. Ubuntu now has cloud support for
| Amazonâs EC2 and Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud
| (a âprivate cloudâ system based on
| Eucalyptus). This means that itâs easy to
| spin up Ubuntu instances on EC2 or to make
| your own private cloud with Ubuntu â where
| you can spin up more instances of Ubuntu â
| thereâs a lot of âcloudâ going on here!

| The new style of Ubuntu is driven by the

| comprehensive set of visual guidelines and
| treatments that reflect that style, and
| are updating key assets like the logo
| accordingly. The new theme takes effect in
| 10.04 LTS and will define our look and
| feel for several years.

| Ubuntu has seen a tremendous amount of
| growth and change since it was conceived
| in 2004. Back then it was a small project
| with strong ambitions and a handful of
| developers passionate about delivering a
| world class Linux Operating System that
| can compete on every level with Microsoft
| and Apple. We adopted a style based on the
| tagline âLinux for Human Beingsâ, and
| called it âHumanâ. Six years on we have
| made incredible progress. Ubuntu is a
| global phenomenon: we have carved out a
| pervasive culture of quality and design,
| thoughtful usability and great technology
| all fused together in a project that
| maintains the same commitment to community
| and collaborative development that we
| embraced back in 2004.
