So it's nice we were able to fix it quickly." Jonathan quotes from a bug report and adds "Wish we could do them all that smoothly!" http://blogs.kde.org/2013/10/02/kubuntu-beastie-fixing === Nicholas Skaggs: Dancing, testing, and releasing === Nicholas Skaggs invites everyone who owns a Nexus device to install and help test Ubuntu Touch.

Elizabeth also provides a link which gives some information about nominating future council members. http://princessleia.com/journal/?p=8546 === Charles Profitt: Ubuntu Community Council === Charles Profitt adds his perspective to a recent post made by Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph about the Ubuntu Community Council. Charles says that he has served on the council for a little under the two years and in that time there has been quite a bit of change and controversy in the Ubuntu Community, and reinforces what he considers to be required in order to serve on the Council. http://ftbeowulf.wordpress.com/2013/10/04/ubuntu-community-council/ === Jono Bacon: Karma Machine: An Example of Ubuntu App Convergence === Jono Bacon shows us a short screencast of the winner of the Ubuntu App Showdown, a neat reddit client called Karma Machine.

Rafael thanks Julien Lavergne and Alexander Andjelkovich and says "If you're going to download and install Lubuntu 13.10 you'll have it by default." http://lubuntublog.blogspot.com/2013/10/box-041-icon-theme.html == In The Press == === French National Police Switch 37,000 Desktop PCs to Linux === Klint Finley of Wired.com reports that France's National Gendarmerie is now running 37,000 desktop PCs with a custom version of the Linux operating system, and the agency plans to move all 72,000 of its desktop machines to the open source OS. Klint says this is one of the largest known government deployments of Linux on the desktop which started in 2008 when it switched 5,000 users to a Linux OS based on Ubuntu. http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/09/gendarmerie_linux/ === Ubuntu 13.10: Meet the Linux distro with a bizarre Britney Spears fixation === Scott Gilbertson of The Register reports that Ubuntu 13.10 is shaping up to be "a solid, if slightly dull, Linux distro" and that there have been no major visual changes to the desktop, only a couple of expanded features for the Unity Dash, which means 13.10, due 17 October, won't look all that different from the last release of Ubuntu when it arrives. Scott concludes "So while the big stuff is under the hood or yet to come, there are a couple of new things you'll notice if you decided to test this beta. The biggest and most obvious is the new Smart Scopes service, which adds a ton of new search results to the Unity Dash." http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/10/01/ubuntu_second_beta_review/ == In The Blogosphere == === Ubuntu user replaces proprietary OS with Ubuntu on mother's computer, the result: "she loves it" === razvi of iloveubuntu writes that the Ubuntu-passionate user Suicidalparrot shared an interesting personal happening, namely, installing Ubuntu 13.04 on the computer of the user's mother, shifting the mother's machine from the proprietary Windows 7 to the solid-as-a-rock Ubuntu 13.04 with the result "she loves it, especially since it went from a barely usable hunk of junk to running like a brand new machine." razvi adds that perhaps the most important aspect of this is the reminder of how each one of us is able to recommend Ubuntu to a friend on a daily basis. http://iloveubuntu.net/ubuntu-user-replaces-proprietary-os-ubuntu-mothers-computer-result-she-loves-it === Ubuntu 14.04 LTS To Stay On GTK/GNOME 3.8? === Andrew of WebUpd8 writes that Sebastien Bacher, software engineer at Canonical, recently posted a message on the Ubuntu Desktop mailing list in which he proposes that Ubuntu stays on GTK/GNOME 3.8 for the next cycle (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS). Andrew says "Ubuntu 14.04 will lag two releases behind GNOME which will affect Ubuntu GNOME, Ubuntu users who are contributing to GNOME as well as some non-core GNOME applications that require the latest GNOME technologies" but points out that Sebastien Bacher's message is just a suggestion. http://www.webupd8.org/2013/10/ubuntu-1404-lts-to-stay-on-gtkgnome-38.html === The demand for Ubuntu continues to grow, Ubuntu already shipping in India, China, Mexico, USA, Ukraine === razvi of iloveubuntu refers to an article published by Ubuntu's Maria Bonnefon which looks at the areas of the world where Ubuntu is shipped on computers and lists the exciting amount of Ubuntu partners. From the article razvi quotes "The growth of Ubuntu has also been driven through our strong partnership with major hardware OEM brands such as Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus and Acer. Not only is Ubuntu generally available pre-loaded from these leading OEMs, but in many regions we've entered into full retail partnership with dedicated stores." http://iloveubuntu.net/demand-ubuntu-continues-grow-ubuntu-already-shipping-india-china-mexico-usa-ukraine === Canonical Store Adds New Mug, T-Shirts & Mousemat Set === Joey-Elijah Sneddon of OMG! Ubuntu! reports that Canonical's online shop has been restocked ahead of the release of Ubuntu 13.10 with a number of brand new items including a new look Ubuntu mug and a redesigned mouse mat. Joey provides illustrations of the various items but reminds us that the drawback to buying from the Canonical Store is the shipping costs which remain slightly exorbitant for most outside of the UK (and for many within). http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/10/canonical-store-adds-new-mug-t-shirts-mousemat-set === Stylish Saucy Salamander-branded t-shirts available for purchase on Canonical Shop === razvi of iloveubuntu shows us some t-shirts that have been created with the upcoming release of Saucy Salamander in mind and that are available from Ubuntu's official shop. razvi adds "The Saucy Salamander t-shirts come for both men and women, retaining the same design with certain gender-specific modifications." http://iloveubuntu.net/stylish-saucy-salamander-branded-t-shirts-available-purchase-canonical-shop === Ubuntu 13.10 Release: Five Requirements for Success === The Var Guy writes about the 5 major requirements for Ubuntu to succeed on all platforms (mobile, desktop, server and cloud) and attract partners and customers. http://thevarguy.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-1310-release-five-requirements-success === Unity 7 updated with minor-yet-relevant new names in Ubuntu 13.10 === razvi of iloveubuntu writes that Unity 7 has been enriched in Ubuntu 13.10 with newly-renamed text descriptions, optimizing its parts with more natural names. razvi provides some screenshots to illustrate the changes and says "The new names, while minor, significantly strengthen and improve the Dash's identity and clarity, removing inconsistencies and incomplete own identity, aligning the Dash's power to optimized names." http://iloveubuntu.net/unity-7-updated-minor-yet-relevant-new-names-ubuntu-1310 === Mir 0.0.13 Released With Various Fixes === Michael Larabel of Phoronix writes "While Mir won't be part of the default Ubuntu 13.10 desktop, it will be part of Ubuntu Touch 13.10 and development is continuing in a steadfast manner to make it ready for the desktop in 2014. Mir 0.0.13 was released today while bumping the Mir Server library to version 5." Michael lists some of the changes and says that the updated packages should be available in the Ubuntu Saucy archive soon. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQ3NjA === ezgo - Free And Open Source Software In Taiwan's Schools === Franklin Weng writes "Free and Open Source Software in Taiwan has made impressive strides thanks to the work of the 'ezgo' team" and talks at length about what the ezgo project is. Franklin informs us that Kubuntu is now being used as their base distribution, that the New Taipei City government decided to use a free and open source operating system instead of Microsoft Windows in their new 10,000 PCs for elementary schools, and that ezgo 11 was selected as their pre-installed OS. http://dot.kde.org/2013/10/02/ezgo-free-and-open-source-software-taiwans-schools == In Other News == * Debian Project News - September 30th, 2013 - http://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2013/17/ == Featured Audio and Video == === Ubuntu Ohio - Burning Circle: Burning Circle Episode 133 === "This week we talk about the upcoming release and broach the question as to whether or not we hold a release party." http://ohio.ubuntu-us.org/node/169 === Ubuntu Weekly Update - 1st October 2013 === Daniel Holbach introduces the latest Ubuntu Weekly Update with contributions from Jorge Castro, Kevin Gunn, Michael Hall and Thomas Strehl. === Ubuntu Podcast from the UK LoCo: S06E32 - The Sweet Smell of Ubuntu === "We're back with the thirty-second episode of Season Six of the Ubuntu Podcast from the UK LoCo Team!
