Dustin Kirkland: Results of the Ubuntu Desktop Applications Survey

Dustin Kirkland writes about the recently held UbuCon Europe conference at Paris. He had delivered the closing keynote address at the event, talking in length about the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Default Desktop Application Survey and the inputs thereof. He also hints about a potential change in the Ubuntu Desktop experience, in closing.

Didier Roche: Ubuntu GNOME Shell in Artful (Continued)

Didier Roche from the Desktop Team in a series of daily blog posts describes the process of making Ubuntu GNOME Shell ready for Artful Aardvark 17.10. The desired result contains both a default Ubuntu session experience avoiding any shock for those updating from Unity 7, and the choice of a more generic GNOME session.

• Ubuntu GNOME Shell in Artful: Day 13 - https://didrocks.fr/2017/09/20/ubuntu-gnome-shell-in-artful-day-13/

• Ubuntu GNOME Shell in Artful: Day 14 - https://didrocks.fr/2017/09/25/ubuntu-gnome-shell-in-artful-day-14/

Kubuntu Team: Call for design: Artful Banner for Kubuntu.org website

In a brief post, the Kubuntu Team writes about the need for a new banner on Kubuntu.org for the upcoming release, and provides details about how to submit any banners, writing, “We need a new banner for the website, and invite artists and designers to submit designs to us based on the Plasma wallpaper and perhaps the mascot design.”
