== LoCo News ==

=== Ubuntu in national Danish TV again ===

The Danish Lo``Co has done it again. Following their first appearance on television, where they set up Ubuntu for a family with children, they have now followed up with the family. The family is still using Ubuntu, and the father's company has also moved to Ubuntu. This tops off their 2008 year of parties and advertising very nicely. http://martinpihl.dk/words/ubuntu-in-national-danish-tv-again

== Launchpad News ==

=== Launchpad interview: Meet Jonathan Lange ===

Jonathan is one of the "busy people" working on the SSH server, and it's components for Launchpad. This is the system that allows you to download branches and commit to them through bzr. His humor, as well as his interest in computers and software, come through quite well in this interview. But, did he really ingest an ancient Tibetan philtre that granted him the ability to walk through walls, and compel him to give away Python code every so often? Read the entire interview here: http://news.launchpad.net/meet-the-devs/meet-jonathan-lange

=== Launchpad interview with Adam Olsen(Exaile) ===

The Exaile media player began life as a clone of Amarok but developed for GNOME rather than KDE. At that time, Adam felt that Amarok was a bit buggy despite the qualities it had. First hosted on his own servers, he moved to Launchpad when his server was hacked. In this interview Adam describes some of his interaction with Launchpad, and what he likes about it. Read the entire interview here: http://news.launchpad.net/projects/exaile-media-player

=== Launchpad 2.1.12 released ===

== Noticias LoCo ==

=== Ubuntu en la TV nacional Danesa nuevamente ===

El Lo``Co Danés lo ha echo nuevamente. Siguiendo su primera aparición en televisión, donde configuraron Ubuntu para una familia con hijos, han seguido con ésta familia. La familia todavia está utilizando Ubuntu, y la compañia del padre también se ha cambiado a Ubuntu. Esto supera su año 2008 de fiestas y publicidad. http://martinpihl.dk/words/ubuntu-in-national-danish-tv-again

== Noticias Launchpad ==

=== Entrevista Launchpad: Conoce a Jonathan Lange ===

Jonathan es una de las "personas ocupadas" trabajando en el servidor SSH, y sus componentes para Launchpad. Este es el sistema que le permite descargar branches y cometerlas mediante bzr. Su humor, así como su interés en computadoras y software, vienen muy bien en ésta entrevista. Pero, realmente ingirió un philtre tibetano antiguo que le concedió la capacidad de caminar a través de las paredes, y lo obligó a regalar código Python cada cierto tiempo? Lea toda la entrevista aquí: http://news.launchpad.net/meet-the-devs/meet-jonathan-lange

=== Entrevista Launchpad con Adam Olsen(Exaile) ===

El reproductor Exaile comenzó su vida como un clon de Amarok pero desarrollado para GNOME en véz de KDE. En este tiempo, Adam sintió que Amarok estaba con errores sin contar las cualidades que éste tenía. Alojado primero en sus propios servidores, se mudó a Launchpad cuando su servidor fue hackeado. En ésta entrevista Addam describe algo de su interacción con Launcpad, y que le gusta sobre él. Lea toda la entrevista aquí: http://news.launchpad.net/projects/exaile-media-player

Anunciando el próximo "Global Ubuntu Bugjam"

Jorge nos ha dado las fechas para el próximo Global Bugjam: 20 al 22 de Febrero, 2009. Esta es una oportunidad para que la gente se reuna en línea y en verdad impacte en arreglar bugs.

Main frozen for Alpha 2

Steve Langasek has reported that Alpha 2, the second milestone for Jaunty Jackalope, occurred on December 18, 2008. With this, the milestone freeze is in effect, and one should hold any disruptive or unnecessary files until after the release of Alpha 2. Primary focus should be on resolving existing bugs[1] and helping get the archive in a consistent state[2].

Noticias Launchpad

Entrevista Launchpad: Conoce a Jonathan Lange

Jonathan es una de las "personas ocupadas" trabajando en el servidor SSH, y sus componentes para Launchpad. Este es el sistema que le permite descargar branches y cometerlas mediante bzr. Su humor, así como su interés en computadoras y software, vienen muy bien en ésta entrevista. Pero, realmente ingirió un philtre tibetano antiguo que le concedió la capacidad de caminar a través de las paredes, y lo obligó a regalar código Python cada cierto tiempo?

Entrevista Launchpad con Adam Olsen(Exaile)

El reproductor Exaile comenzó su vida como un clon de Amarok pero desarrollado para GNOME en véz de KDE. En este tiempo, Adam sintió que Amarok estaba con errores sin contar las cualidades que éste tenía. Alojado primero en sus propios servidores, se mudó a Launchpad cuando su servidor fue hackeado. En ésta entrevista Addam describe algo de su interacción con Launcpad, y que le gusta sobre él. Lea toda la entrevista aquí: http://news.launchpad.net/projects/exaile-media-player

Launchpad 2.1.12 liberado

Just released, Launchpad 2.1.12, and two exciting new ways for other services to use data in Launchpad. Included are the bug plugin API, and plugins for Bugzilla and Track. The API plugin allows you to create your own plugins for other bug trackers. Also included is the Drupal modules for launchpad that let you use Launchpad to authenticate your Drupal site’s visitors, and assign Drupal roles based on someone’s Launchpad team memberships. http://news.launchpad.net/releases/launchpad-2112-new-bug-tracker-plugin-api

Preparing for signed PPA's

Personal Project Archives are getting the ability to have signed packages. Instead of having individual private keys on file with Launchpad, or creating one key for all the packages, Launchpad is generating new keys for each archive and then signing each build made from the time of the key’s creation. It will take some time to generate all the keys so, for a while, some packages will have keys and some won't. Check your PPA overview page to see if the key for your PPA has been generated yet. http://news.launchpad.net/general/preparing-for-signed-ppas

In The Press

  • Ubuntu-sponsored FOSScamp builds community - The week-long Ubuntu Developer Summit (UDS) meets every six months at changing locations to discuss what will be included in the next Ubuntu release. The mostly unheralded FOSScamp always meets the weekend before. FOSScamp has no program, no invited speakers, and costs nothing. It has been compared to a sort of geek Woodstock but smaller, where the Ubuntu hip just show up. With a blank whiteboard in the lobby, anyone can pick up a marker and schedule a presentation. The speakers are self-selected and self-proclaimed, but not every available slot gets filled with a topic because a hot topic may not have much scheduled against it. Article author Robin Rowe tells us, "I've spoken at many open source conferences -- Open Source Days, FOSDEM, GUADEC -- but being able to invent sessions in the moment, and to experiment with session topics was new to me, and freeing." During the two days of FOSScamp, Robin led twice as many FOSScamp sessions as he would at a typical conference. http://www.linux.com/feature/155866

  • Java Performance: Ubuntu Linux vs. Windows Vista - Have you ever wondered on what operating system Java works the best? Phoronix ran a number of Java benchmarks on both Windows Vista Premium and Ubuntu Linux, to see how the Java Virtual Machine performance differs. Phoronix also tested both Sun's official Java package as well as the OpenJDK alternative when running Ubuntu. The Java tests they ran included Sunflow Rendering System, Bork File Encrypter, Java SciMark, and the Java 2D Microbenchmark (j2dbench test profile). All tests were run on the Phoronix Test Suite, though on Windows Vista they had to be run manually. Java on Ubuntu was pretty much the hands-down winner compared to Microsoft Windows Vista Premium SP1. Running the Java tests on Ubuntu showed significant advantages when it came to file encryption, Fast Fourier Transforms, Successive Over Relaxation, Monte Carlo, and the composite Java SciMark performance. The six tests didn't stress all areas of the Java stack, but it provided a brief look at where the Java performance is between Ubuntu Linux and Windows Vista. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=java_vm_performance&num=1

  • One Linux to Rule Them All? - techradar.com has an interesting interview with Jeremy Allison, leader of the Samba project. Of interest is Allison’s assertion that Ubuntu, thanks to its unparalleled popularity and huge user base, has the strongest chance to take Linux mainstream. Author Christopher Tozzi, agrees. Ubuntu is making significant progress where other distributions have failed for ten years: namely, consolidating the resources of the free-software community into a single Linux distribution that has enough users and developers to present itself to those outside the IT world as the pre-eminent representative of the Linux community. Ubuntu has managed to make itself almost synonymous with Linux, at least for non-techies. Simplification, is what Linux needs if it aspires to take over the desktops of the world. Ubuntu’s dominance doesn’t mean that other distributions can’t exist or should become irrelevant, but there needs to be one distribution that mainstream users can directly and easily associate with Linux. Ubuntu may well prove to be that distribution. http://www.WorksWithU.com/2008/12/15/one-linux-to-rule-them-all/

  • ZaReason Preparing Ubuntu Servers - ZaReason, one of the best-known companies developing Ubuntu desktops and notebooks, plans to introduce Ubuntu server products soon. ZaReason CEO Cathy Malmrose mentioned the server news to WorksWithU a few months ago, but details about their server strategy remains sketchy. ZaReason briefly mentioned: "We will be launching our servers on the site in Q4 2008", however, time is running out in Q4. In some ways, ZaReason, and Ubuntu are going into uncharted waters together. So far, Canonical’s Ubuntu Server Edition initiative has yielded mixed results. WorksWithU's 1000 survey confirms that companies are embracing Ubuntu Server Edition faster than the mainstream media reports. Ubuntu however is a work in progress for servers, and Sun Microsystems is the only major server maker to endorse the Ubuntu Server Edition so far. System76, another vocal Ubuntu proponent, sells Ubuntu certified servers, and ZaReason’s anticipated entry into the Ubuntu server market should provide another moderate step forward for Canonical’s server strategy. http://www.workswithu.com/2008/12/17/zareason-preparing-ubuntu-servers/

In The Blogosphere

  • Back from UDS - Blogger Stuart Langridge has returned from the Ubuntu Developer Summit and tells us, "It was fascinating meeting everyone and seeing it all up close." Stuart got interviewed by the Ubuntu UK podcast team, caught up with a few people he hadn’t seen for a while, and lots of people he’d never met face-to-face. He threw together a quick “lifestream” bit of JavaScript which would track a tag across various sites, and it ended up on Launchpad. Langridge tell us that he starts work for Canonical at the beginning of January, and he's really excited because now he gets to help make the desktop he uses even better. http://www.kryogenix.org/days/2008/12/15/back-from-uds

  • Going Loco Over the Ubuntu Logo - Ubuntu is undoubtedly the most popular Linux distribution at the moment. It has millions of passionate users, and tons of dynamic community members to prove it. Some people have taken their love for Ubuntu to the extremes. This blog posting shows us pictures of the Ubuntu logo in many forms including tattoos, hair cuts, bread, buns, cookies, cakes, soup, and more! Ubuntu fans will enjoy reviewing the photos and adding links to their own versions of the Ubuntu logo to the comments section at the bottom of the article. http://www.junauza.com/2008/12/going-loco-over-ubuntu-logo.html

Linux is a way of life, not a clone of windows

Locutus tells us "All too often I hear the phrase, if only Linux would do such'n'such like Windows, then it would be more popular." Generally those type of remarks only come from Windows users. People will try and make Linux like Windows, but they don't get much support. The most popular distributions are also the most Linux flavored ones. Linux is more than just an operating system - it is a way of life. It does not mean a way of life in the sense that you dress in technicolor tie dyed clothes, give up on personal hygiene, and listen to bad poetry. Linux is all about individuality, freedom of expression, and having control over your computing environment. Linux is not a company with a goal to capture market share. It is a labor of love by people who want freedom of choice. Linux is not, and has never aspired to be a clone of anything. If it does seem similar to other operating systems, that is because that particular functionality is the best way to do it. http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/locutus/linux-is-a-way-of-life-not-a-clone-of-windows-28864
