More efficient membership approval process
The Community Council has recently implemented some changes to community governance processes which it believes reflect a significant improvement in one area of community governance: applications for Ubuntu membership.
As a result three regional membership boards have been created to consider applications from contributors to the project for Ubuntu membership. The boards are:
Americas
Europe, Middle East and Africa
Asia / Oceania

LoCo Council Open for Business
The Community Council has delegated LoCo-related governance to the LoCo Council, similar to the recent creation of regional boards for Ubuntu membership. The LoCo Council is responsible for approving new LoCos, re-approving LoCos (more on that below), conflict resolution, resource allocation, mentoring, growth, and highlighting best practices.
The approval process for LoCos has not changed. New teams should continue referring to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingApproved as the reference guide for approval. In the near future, the LoCo Council will be documenting how to bring conflicts in front of the council and how to privately communicate on sensitive issues. The LoCo Council is also working on ways to make it easier for LoCos to request resources, like mailing lists and Canonical-provided hosting.
Approved LoCos will need to be re-approved every year. This is to make sure LoCos have the resources and help needed to continue supporting their area. Re-approval is similar to the initial approval application, simply documenting what the LoCo has done in the previous year and laying out plans for the future. LoCos needing to be re-approved will be contacted by the LoCo Council, and provided a timetable to submit their application. If a LoCo is not ready to be re-approved, the LoCo Council will work with the team to refocus and establish itself again.
Meetings will be held at least once a month. LoCos wanting to be approved or wishing to discuss any issues are welcome to add themselves to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoCouncilAgenda.
The next LoCo Council meeting will be held 04-June-2008, 16:00 UTC.

Launchpad 1.2.5: code branch reviews and translations search
The Launchpad team is proud to announce the release of Launchpad 1.2.5! New features in this release include:
- voting and commenting on code branch mergers
- new Launchpad-wide search
- and translations search!
Launchpad's merge proposals are a great way for project contributors to get their code considered for inclusion in the main line. Now, branch owners - and anyone else who's interested - can vote and comment on merge proposals. These changes make it easy to discuss and tweak proposed changes to a branch. You can browse the branch which contains the changes then comment and vote directly on what you've seen.
You can take a look at one of the first branch merger comments here:https://code.launchpad.net/~thumper/pqm/test-bzr-home/+merge/296/

In The Press
VIA Unveils New OpenBook UMPC Reference Design - VIA is announces a new addition to their portfolio of UMPC reference designs, dubbed the OpenBook. The VIA OpenBook is a 240mm(W) x 175mm(D) x 36.2mm(H) mini-note style UMPC that weighs in at a svelte 2.2lbs (1kg). The unit offers up to 3 hours of battery life through the use of a 4-cell 2600mA lithium-ion battery, and it sports an 8.9” (1024 x 600) LCD display, a full keyboard and touch pad, and a dual-head 2MP integrated webcam. The OpenBook will be made available with a wide array of operating systems options, both proprietary and open source, including Ubuntu. Detailed specs at the link. http://www.hothardware.com/News/VIA_Unveils_New_OpenBook_UMPC_Reference_Design/
Ubuntu 8.04 Is Ready to Take On Windows - Canonical has marshaled the best of what the open-source world has to offer in Ubuntu 8.04, a Linux-based operating system that's capable of mounting a serious challenge to Microsoft Windows on mainstream desktops and notebooks. As with any would-be Windows rival, Ubuntu 8.04 faces an uphill battle for hardware and software certifications. Regarding software, the continued improvement of open-source alternative applications such as the OpenOffice.org productivity suite, Firefox Web browser and Evolution groupware client go a long way toward providing users with the tools they require to get their work done from a Linux-based desktop. http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Linux-and-Open-Source/Ubuntu-804-Is-Ready-to-Take-On-Windows/
Can System Builders Turn to Ubuntu? - Late last month, Ubuntu 8.04 arrived on the scene, right on time, right on its six-month refresh cycle and readily available via a simple ISO image file download. While that may have been big news for the Linux community, the question remains, what if any impact will this latest release have on mainstream computer users? For the majority of PC users, the impact will probably be nil. That doesn’t mean there isn’t an opportunity here for solution providers and system builders however. But first they have to contemplate Ubuntu being a viable alternative to Microsoft’s family of Windows products. http://www.channelinsider.com/c/a/Reviews/Can-System-Builders-Turn-to-Ubuntu/
Forget the Heron; what's new in Ubuntu's Intrepid Ibex? - Ubuntu, arguably the most popular Linux distribution today, came out with its 8.04 release last month, dubbed Hardy Heron. Here’s the low down on what the future holds this October with Ubuntu 8.10, Intrepid Ibex. Two key design goals were announced from the beginning. First, the user interaction model will be re-engineered to ensure Ubuntu works as responsively as possible on hardware ranging from little subnotebooks up to and including high-end workstations. Second, is the goal of pervasive internet access. Ubuntu has explicitly stated they wish this next release of Ubuntu to tap into bandwidth wherever you may be to provide pervasive internet access. http://www.itwire.com/content/view/18482/1141/
New Life for an Old PC - There are several versions, or “distributions,” of the free operating system Linux, available online. Ubuntu is considered one of the more user-friendly versions of the operating system, and you can download a copy at www.ubuntu.com. Ubuntu Desktop even comes with OpenOffice word-processing, spreadsheet and presentation software, Firefox Web browser, a calendar and an e-mail program — the free equivalents of Microsoft software like Office programs and Internet Explorer. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/29/technology/personaltech/29askk-002.html?_r=2&ref=personaltech&oref=slogin&oref=slogin
Nonprofit chooses Ubuntu for servers, OpenOffice for desktops - Oxford Archaeology is one of the largest independent excavation firms in Britain. Their mission is to discover and preserve historical artifacts, and then share its findings. Two years ago, when Puttick(CIO) arrived at the 35-year-old company, his goal was to convert the entire firm completely to open source -- not just the operating system but also the database, office desktops, customer relationship management and geographic mapping systems. Puttick started with the servers, most of which now run on Ubuntu (some 6.06 LTS and others on 8.04 LTS), then they tried the OpenOffice desktop application. Canonical is responsive and quick to address user issues, both through regular channels and personal contacts, Puttick said. http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/news/article/0,289142,sid39_gci1315258,00.html
In The Blogosphere
Adventures with open source apps on Linux - Part 1 - In this first post Adrian Kingsley-Hughes takes a closer look at some of the applications that ship with Ubuntu 8.04 and which are ready to use as soon as you’ve installed and booted into Linux! See, after you’ve install Windows, you’ve got the OS, Notepad, Calculator and a few other bits and pieces. After installing a distro like Ubuntu you’ve got a whole raft of applications at your disposal. http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/?p=1906&page=1
Ubuntu desktop (LTS) 8.04 - Why should anyone care about Ubuntu? Well there are many reasons that it’s good to have alternatives - and free ones at that - to the big operating systems. For one, these systems are free. For another, they are for the most part open source, which means that anybody can modify or add to them. One of the most impressive things about it is that it can coexist with Windows XP on the same computer. http://sky.dlfound.org/ubuntu-desktop-lts-804/
Then they fight you - Jani Monoses asked the organizers if our Free Software Group could hold a short session about the benefits of FOSS in education, with references to Ubuntu, Edubuntu and Kiwilinux and we were given a slot after the ones which had already been planned a while ago - those of Microsoft, Cisco and a local company that sells education software for Romanian schools. Then the Free Software Group was notified that the Microsoft representative in charge with the education strategy had requested the organizers to pull the Ubuntu presentation because it is unfair competition to hold such a presentation at an event sponsored by them. http://janimo.blogspot.com/2008/05/then-they-fight-you.html
