The Grand App Writing Challenge Submissions!
,----[ Quote ]
| As many of you will be aware, this week
| Ubuntu Opportunistic Developer Week took
| part, and the week has been wonderful so
| far. There has been so much excitement and
| interest, and I have been tickled pink at
| just how many people have been telling me
| that the week has re-invigorated their
| interest or given them a new passion for
| writing fun and useful apps. Ubuntu is an
| awesome platform for making these apps, and
| it has been a real pleasure to see people
| getting so fired up about using it. :-)
|
| Before the week kicked off, I offered a fun
| little challenge called The Grand App
| Writing Challenge. With a week of rocking
| content ahead designed to help build a fun
| and thriving community who like to write
| apps that scratch their itches, I put
| forward the challenge for you good people
| to write some apps and see how far you get
| this week, and I will blog your progress at
| the end of the week. Well, while we still
| have a few sessions yet to go, it is Friday
| and I was keen to show off some progress!

International Womenâs Day
,----[ Quote ]
| As part of International Womenâs Day, the
| Ubuntu Women team have been running a
| competition to gather a collection of
| stories that share how women discovered
| Ubuntu and their experiences of joining our
| community. I thought this was a wonderful
| initiative: it really speaks to strong
| experiences of how Ubuntu can enable women
| to join a collaborative community, and how
| technology can be a true enabler.

Ubuntu, The Ultimate Linux Distribution
,----[ Quote ]
| From its Debian roots to its commercially
| available support to its overwhelming
| popularity, Ubuntu is the ultimate Linux
| distribution. For me, Ubuntu became a
| significant force within the Linux
| community with its 2006 releases: 6.04 and
| 6.10. From April 2006, I've installed and
| used every new version and anticipate each
| new one the way a child anticipates toys on
| Christmas morning. But, have you ever
| wondered why is Ubuntu the ultimate Linux
| distribution? Why is it so popular? Why did
| Canonical choose Debian as its distribution
| template? And, why did Mark Shuttleworth
| believe in Linux so much that he chose to
| create Canonical to support it?

Ubuntu: reverse type is cool. And unreadable
,----[ Quote ]
| When one types an address into the Firefox
| address bar, the remembered URLs come up -
| and while the names of the sites are in
| reverse and readable, the actual URLs are a
| bright shade of blue. Bright blue type on a
| dark background. Readability at its best.

| The next version of Ubuntu â codename Lucid
| Lynx â will be the 10.04 release, and is
| scheduled to be released and declared
| stable in April. As a long-term support
| version, coupled with increasing
| popularity, this is undoubtedly the most
| important Ubuntu release to date.
