Ubuntu 6.06.2?

Una pregunta frecuente ha sido ¿Hay planes para publicar Ubuntu 6.06.2? ¿Si es así, cuando? y finalmente hemos conseguido una respuesta. Colin Watson, un desarrollador de Ubuntu y empleado de Canonical, ha anunciado en la lista de correo Ubuntu-devel que actualmente no hay planes para Ubuntu 6.06.2: "I expect we'll do another point release at *some* point just to aggregate updates, pero there's no schedule en el momento, y otras cosas son alta-prioridad" Usted puede leer el mensaje completo de Watson's en https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-November/022542.html

Cambios en Feisty

The week was a little bit quieter than last, with fewer of any of the high volumes than usual (GNOME, Telepathy, KDE or XFCE). None the less, there were some interesting and exciting changes that still landed. This week we also have a new method of showcasing the changes in Feisty.

Ubuntu Kurdo en Turquía

Kurdish Ubuntu has been promoted (http://www.ntvmsnbc.com/news/391178.as enlace en Turquía) en Diyarbakir, Turquía, con una recepción. According to the news agency, Ubuntu was the first linux distribution to implement Kurdish localization. Kurdish localization in Linux is an important milestone for Turkey due to ethnic conflicts (Usted puede leer más en http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurds_in_turkey ).

Kurdish Ubuntu was prepared by a team of hardworking translators (https://launchpad.net/people/kurdish ) en Rosetta. In his talk at the reception, the mayor of Sur (a town in Diyarbakir) said that "Whatever language it is in, we wanted it "our service" to be accessible multi-lingually because multilingualism is our wealth. Our work is being conducted on Kurdish, English, and Turkish language support. ... If we can integrate multilingualism, multi-identities, and multi-culturalism in this nation, this region will be a place of peace instead of conflicts."

Mehmed Uzun, un escritor Kurdo, speaking about the Kurdish language, told the attendees that "Our most important problem is that the language is not standardized. The Kurdish language should be standardized." Ubuntu was later distributed to the reception's attendees. You can find screenshots of the Kurdish Ubuntu at http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Kurdish_Linux_launched_in_Turkey

Ubuntu en el OLPC mix: Una entrevista en ZDNet

Nicholas Negroponte gurú de MIT Media Lab has been grabbing the headlines recently with his One Laptop Per Child project. The aim is to create a cheap — about $100 — and robust laptop for use in the developing world. Negroponte is adamant that ownership of the device is key to helping children engage with technology. However, the OLPC project is not the only organisation to have focused on the lack of computing devices and infrastructure in the developing world.

An alternative to both the refurbished PCs and the OLPC approach has been developed by two UK academics. Ndiyo, the Swahili word for "yes", is a project that aims to allow multiple users access to the same PC. The brain-child of Quentin Stafford-Fraser, a former research scientist at AT&T Laboratories Cambridge, Ndiyo is based around the untapped ability of the Linux operating system (Ubuntu) to support numerous simultaneous users.

Meetings

Xubuntu Community Meeting

Xubuntu had a very important meeting (the first meeting in almost 6 months, usted puede leer la agenda en https://wiki.ubuntu.org/Xubuntu/Meetings/Archive/Agenda/2006-11-25) on November 25th which was open to the general community. Después de 2 horas y media de discusión, it appears that the Xubuntu Team (http://launchpad.net/people/xubuntu-team ) and interested community members have made great strides in developing goals, estrategias, y organización for the Feisty release cycle. Topics included artwork, documentation efforts, website development, community development, y mucho más. You can review the minutes from the meeting at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings/Archive/Minutes/2006-11-25 and the log at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/Xubuntu_2006-11-25.

Ubuntu Documentation Team Meeting

El equipo de Documentación de Ubuntu was also guilty of taking a long meeting hiatus but that changed on November 24th when the doc team got together to discuss documentation specifications, la guía del escritorio de kubuntu, Ubuntu open week, the use of screen-casts, Xubuntu documentation (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Documentation) and consider a move from svn to bzr. Usted puede buscar un resumen detallado en https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeamMeeting20061124.

Próximos eventos

In just two years, Ubuntu has become one of the most popular Linux distribution in the world with millions of users and a spot regularly at the top of Distrowatch. Ever wondered what all the fuss is about? How we've achieved such a great feat in such a short space of time? With the upcoming Ubuntu Open Week, you can do just that!

The Ubuntu community and Ubuntu's corporate sponsor Canonical is holding a series of online workshops where you can:

  • aprenda acerca del landscape de Ubuntu;
  • charle con algunos de los principales desarrolladores del proyecto Ubuntu;
  • descubra sobre la comunidad y su relación con Canonical;

  • participate en un abierto de P&R con Mark Shuttleworth, el fundador de Ubuntu; y

  • mucho más...

The week takes place between Lun 27th Nov y Sab 2nd Dic 2006 y más información acerca the event (including a schedule of the week's events) can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek.

Specification spotlight

La última semana agregamos una nueva característica llamada "Specification highlight" and we discussed the very interesting Network Roaming (https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/network-roaming) and Default Network Services (https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/default-network-services) specification. This week will continue with the network theme and take a look at the much desired Winmodem Support (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/winmodem-support) specification which proposes developing out-of-the-box support for winmodems.

As you may know, un winmodem es un software de modem diseñado para trabajar con el sistema operativo Microsoft Windows. A traditional modem uses hardware to perform its tasks, but Winmodems perform their key tasks with software. This makes them smaller and cheaper to produce, but it also means they cannot be easily used on other operating systems because the driver support requires far more effort to produce. This specification proposes including drivers for supported winmodems by default and working with the upstream project (http://linmodems.org) to develop drivers for winmodems that are currently unsupported.

With over 500 individuals strongly supporting this specification (out of 771 respondents) according to an unofficial poll (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=82608) conducted on the ubuntu forums (http://ubuntuforums.org), it seems like support for winmodems could have a positive impact on the ubuntu experience for a lot of users.

Corrección del boletín semanal de Ubuntu

The UWN Team would like to correct an error in the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter Issue # 21.

Colin Watson wrote" "

Quoting from https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-news/2006-November/000061.html:

"However, only certain people have the authoirty[sic] to determine which specs are worthy of discussion at a meeting like the Ubuntu DeveloperSummit in Mountain View, and fewer still can approve a spec for official inclusion in Ubuntu."

Actually, this is backwards. Approving specs for meetings is done by thetechnical board (four people at present), while we have been farming the job of approver out to increasing numbers of longer-serving core developers. We had a conference call shortly before the summit with IIRC at least six of us going through the list and figuring out which of us would be best suited to make sure each discussion was going in a sensible direction.

Cheers,

Colin Watson "

The UWN Team would like to apologize for any confusion that this error may have caused and much thanks to Colin Watson for letting us know.
