deployments ===

 

Robie Basak proposes that institutions using continuous integration

deployments with Ubuntu keep an eye on the development version of

Ubuntu, suggesting: "How about a branch that targets the Ubuntu

development release? This way your continuous integration can flag any

action you need to take to make your deployment work against the next

release (and thus the next LTS, if you deploy on LTS)."

=== Jono Bacon: Building an Ubuntu App Developer Advocacy Community ===

 

Jono Bacon writes that making things better for Ubuntu App Developers

can best be done by building a new community for them. This will

partly will be done by showcasing video tutorials, training weeks,

local tutorial schools, app contests, and more. A good place to start

helping is to join the "Users of the Ubuntu Etherpad instance" team.

=== Stephen Michael Kellat: Value of Offline Documentation ===

 

Stephen Michael Kellat reflects upon the work done on the Xubuntu

offline documentation and stresses the importance of putting effort

into developing it. Kellat demonstrates: "Offline documentation serves

a useful purpose with all of our flavors. The so-called "digital

divide" has shifted from being a matter of lacking discrete points of

access to the Internet to a marked divergence in the degrees of

quality among those access points. When the lights go out for me or my

broadband provider has a line cut, having offline documentation is

better than having access to nothing at all."
