Follow up to Default Search Provider Changes for 10.04
,----[ Quote ]
| However, for the final release, we will use
| Google as the default provider. I have
| asked the Ubuntu Desktop team to change the
| default back to Google as soon as
| reasonably possible, but certainly by final
| freeze on April 15th.
|
| It was not our intention to "flap" between
| providers, but the underlying circumstances
| can change unpredictably. In this case,
| choosing Google will be familiar to
| everybody upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 and
| the change will only be visible to those
| who have been part of the development cycle
| for 10.04.

Firefox in Ubuntu to be powered by Google after all
,----[ Quote ]
| In any case, having Google as the default
| search engine is the best option, so I
| welcome the change. Whatever the convoluted
| dance-stepping offered to un-justify and
| then re-justify it.

Ubuntu 10.04 Review = bleh.
,----[ Quote ]
| The one other thing I did notice right off
| the bat was that the GIMP was gone. Why
| Canonical decided to leave out a very, if
| not the most important piece of software
| raises some questions. Canonical needs to
| spend less time on Googleâs Chrome OS and
| more time on their own OS.

What's coming in the new Ubuntu Linux desktop?
,----[ Quote ]
| Carr wasn't hinting, however, about Ubuntu
| not including Mono, Novell's Microsoft
| .NET-compatible set of software tools,
| applications by default. While some open-
| source fans really dislike Mono, thanks in
| no small part to Novell's Microsoft
| partnership and Mono's reliance on .NET, if
| anything, Ubuntu seems to be incorporating
| more of Mono in its default distribution.

12 Things New About Upcoming Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx
,----[ Quote ]
| The next major update of Ubuntu code named
| Ubuntu Lucid Lynx is scheduled to arrive in
| April 2010. This is going to be an LTS
| edition, which means updates will be
| available for three years in desktop and
| five years in Servers. Even though Ubuntu
| 10.04 is going to be an LTS release, a
| complete overhaul is on the cards. Lets
| take a peek at what's coming in Ubuntu
| 10.04 Lucid Lynx.

|
| In another rather controversial move,
| Ubuntu is going to ditch GIMP. In
| Canonical's observation, most of the users
| don't ever use the advanced functionalities
| of GIMP and all their basic image
| manipulation needs are met with other
| applications. Again, you can always install
| GIMP with a few clicks using Ubuntu
| Software Centre, and so IMO, this is not
| going to be a big deal for most of us.
