=== Intrepid Ibex Alpha 6 released === Alpha 6 is the sixth in a series of milestone CD images. These are not meant for anyone needing a stable system; they are meant for developers and those who want to help in testing, reporting, and fixing bugs. The Alpha images are known to be reasonably free of showstopper CD build or installer bugs, while representing a very recent snapshot of Intrepid. More information and links to the downloads can be found at the link. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2008-September/000487.html === Xubuntu News === Cody Summervill, the Xubuntu Project Leader, reports that two new additions have been made to the leadership of the Xubuntu team. Pasi Lallinaho is now their new Xubuntu Marketing Lead, and Jannis Pohlmann is the new Xfce4 Liaison. In addition, Michael Casadevall is taking on the role of being our Liason with Debian and Vincent Tunro the role of Xubuntu Website Team Lead. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-news-team/2008-September/000196.html === New Kubuntu Bug Team === Kubuntu now has a bug team[1]. This includes the KDE 4 packages as well.

http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reviews/6536/1/ *Battle Brews Over Firefox in Ubuntu 8.10 - Michael Larabel of Phoronix reports that Mozilla Firefox 3.0.2, which is slated for inclusion in Intrepid, will require users to accept an End-User License Agreement (EULA). Mark Shuttleworth weighed in on the subject stating the EULA is a reasonable requirement and that Mozilla is simply protesting their trademark. In fact, Ubuntu has similar guidelines about use of their Trademark. A number of users are not pleased and state that “mandating this EULA is going too far”.

Graner explains that requiring an L``P bug be filed isn't about bureaucracy, it's about accountability. Without an L``P bug being filed then more problems may arise when people cannot remember why a patch was received. By requiring the L``P bug the Kernel Team can manage proper change controls and improve the kernel in a well documented manner. http://blog.redvoodoo.org/2008/09/bureaucracy.html * Memo to Canonical and Ubuntu: Stop Chasing Apple Mac OS X - Blogger Joe Panettieri is concerned with the focus that Canonical CEO Mark Shuttleworth is putting on the future direction of Ubuntu. Panettieri is especially worried that by going after the design and polish of Apple's OSX that other more important factors, such as wireless networking functioning properly on install, may not get the attention they truly deserve. He's further concerned about the lack of Ubuntu branding on systems shipped with Ubuntu, and with naming confusion over the many varieties of Ubuntu. Developing a more elegant OS is a worth goal, but Panettieri suggests that the basics are worked out first. http://www.workswithu.com/2008/09/15/memo-to-canonical-and-ubuntu-stop-chasing-apple-mac-os-x/ |
