=== Paul White: Some thoughts about Xenial development, an annoying

bug and Yakkety Yak ===

 

Paul White blogs abouts his stepping back and becoming a "floating

contributor." He is impressed by the hard work and enthusiasm that

goes into each Ubuntu release, while noting the minor bugs that do

occasionally get into releases such as #1521302 which affects

'gnome-terminal' and will be fixed by 16.04.1. Paul suggests using

terminator if you are bothered by the bug in the meantime. Finally, he

gives his thoughts on "Yakkety Yak."

 

http://blog.pcw.me.uk/2016/04/some-thoughts-about-xenial-development.html

 

=== Stephane Graber: LXD 2.0: Live migration [9/12] ===

 

Stephane Graber continues the series (this is the 9th of 12) about LXD

2.0. This is on container checkpoint and restore which remains

experimental at this time. To have access to this container live

migration, Stephane lists the requirements (16.04 has them all) and

apt command to install. Then by using example he provides examples of

it, its limitations, and requests that if you discover bugs then

please fill out a Launchpad bug report.

 

https://www.stgraber.org/2016/04/25/lxd-2-0-live-migration-912/

 

=== Matthias Klumpp: A GNOME Software Hackfest report ===

 

Matthias tells us about the recent GNOME hackfest in London. Starting

off as travel log, it moves into shout-outs to various people he

hadn't seen in awhile then to new people, including folks from Endless

"who build their low-budget computer for developing/emerging countries

on top of GNOME and Linux technologies." Matthias was surprised to see

what Endless had done too, writing that the "incarnation of GNOME

Software used by endless looks pretty different from what the normal

GNOME user sees". His post touches on many different topics (XdgApp,

sandboxing, AppStream, etc) ending in a big thank you to the Ubuntu

Community Fund for sponsoring him to be there.

=== Canonical Design Team: Ubuntu orange update ===

 

A short blog by Jamie Young to document the new color palette update

in the SDK; the new orange for screen use is E95420.

 

http://design.canonical.com/2016/04/ubuntu-orange-update/

 

=== Council: Forum Staff Additions ===

 

Documenting the addition of new Forum Moderators accepted as part of

the Staff team. The Ubuntu Council congratulates DuckHook,

jeremy31, kc1di, MAFoElffen, nerdtron, oldrocker99, vasa1, wgarcia &

runrickus for becoming Forum Moderators.

=== Zygmunt Krynicki: Anatomy of a snappy interface ===

 

Zygmunt Krynicki writes another blog post (third) in a series teaching

us about making Snappy interfaces. Zygmunt uses code fragments to

explain what's needed to create an interface. He writes also that if

you want to create the interface, you'll have to wait for the next

post.

 

http://www.zygoon.pl/2016/04/anatomy-of-snappy-interface.html

 

=== Nekhelesh Ramananthan: uNav 0.59 "Beauty and the Beast" is OUT! ===

 

The uNav team, through Nekhelesh Ramananthan, is proud to announce the

release of iNav 0.59. He shares that uNav is a navigation app, and

the hope of this release is turning the "beast" of power within uNav

into a "beauty" in its use.

=== Simon Quigley: Contributing to Ubuntu - 2 - Ubuntu Quality ===

 

Simon Quigley, having done a couple of forms of QA for the Ubuntu

project, tells us how we'd go about it. Using annotated screen dumps

with explanation, Simon walks us through some of how we'd go about

testing a Lubuntu 16.10 daily build, saving bandwidth by using zsync,

creating or selecting a test case, and logging bugs via Launchpad.

Links are provided for further explanation, but and he asserts that if

you're thinking you'd like contribute to Ubuntu via testing, this

could be a starting point.

=== Canonical Design Team: Wallpaper design for Xenial Xerus 16.04 ===

 

Grazina Borosko writes about how the default wallpaper for Xenial

Xerus 16.04 was designed using the Suru visual language. Grazina

starts by showing default wallpapers of 14.10 through 15.10, shares

the Origami animal made in the image of Xerus and notes that the final

resulting default wallpaper of Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus is inspired

by the Origami folds.

=== Sam Hewitt: Extending the Ubuntu Icon Spec. ===

 

Sam Hewitt talks about his extension to the Ubuntu Icon specification,

saying, "When I started designing app icons for folks, I (too) felt

the official specification was lacking detailed instructions and

explanations for the Suru design -not to mention it's woefully out of

date- which isn't much help. My only recourse was to follow updates to

the official icons themselves and to dissect the icons to determine

the elements and visual principles that make up the Suru style and

updates to it." He links to his extension to the guide.

=== Michael Terry: In-App Purchases Available in the Ubuntu Store ===

 

Michael Terry points out the new ability to have in-app purchases in

Ubuntu Touch apps. He points out, "Besides allowing someone to write

the next Candy Crush, this also means that app authors can stop

providing separate 'donation' versions of their app. Which means less

busywork for authors, reviews are all on the same app, and less

confusion for users."

powerful cloud-connected sensor collection device. It has the ability

to send location, acceleration and rotation data directly to a Wolfram

Cloud Databin where you can then interact and use your own data just

like any other Wolfram data source." The post concludes by including

the community in their celebration of this new app, asking users to

tweet the most original findings from their collected sensor data

using the #UbuntuWolfram hash tag.
