=== OpenSSL/OpenSSH vulnerability ===
All Ubuntu users need to regenerate the ssl and ssh keys because of a
security vulnerability found in the upstream Debian packages. The
security hole created predictable keys which can be used to attack
remote hosts. The Ubuntu fix checks for the the predictable keys
generated by the default options of ssl and ssh and blacklists them. All
Ubuntu and derivative users should regenerate keys immediately.
If keys generated on Ubuntu have been copied to a computer using any
other distribution, those keys are still vulnerable and should be
immediately regenerated.
ISOs available already on ubuntu.com, mirrors, and shipit will not be
updated with the new packages, but using the Update Manager to get
security updates and will replace the impacted packages. Users should
then regenerate new keys.
The 8.04.1 point release, expected in July, will include the updates
packages.
* Note: This link will give you further information on who is at risk
and how to correct it:

=== FOSSCamp 2008 Prague ===
FOSSCamp was again a resounding success, as sessions concentrated on
working with various distributions and projects. Some sessions covered
the Ubuntu and Debian relationship and how to improve communication
between the distributions.
Members of the Gnome and KDE came together to discuss if there were ways
to share code, data, or APIs. Dan Shearer provided an overview of the
upcoming Samba 4 release. Samba is working on the Open Change project,
which will be implement Microsoft Exchange server features and protocol.
Open Change is expected to be feature compile by the next Samba XP
conference.
Other sessions included Sun showing their stack of Net Beans, Glass
Fish, and OpenJDK. A session was held on how Brain Storm can be
improved. A packaging jam was held to introduce the work that MOTU do.

=== The Art of Release(Mark Shuttleworth) ===
Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS represented a very significant step forward in our
release management thinking. Not only did it prove that we could execute
an LTS release in the standard 6-month timeframe, but it showed that we
could commit to such an LTS the cycle beforehand. As a result, we can
commit that the next LTS release of Ubuntu will be 10.04 LTS, in April
2010. We also committed, for the first time, to a regular set of point
releases for 8.04 LTS. These will start three months after the LTS, and
be repeated every six months until the next LTS is out. These point
releases will include support for new hardware as well as rolling up all
the updates published in that series to date.
There’s one thing that could convince me to change the date of the next
Ubuntu LTS: the opportunity to collaborate with the other, large
distributions on a coordinated major / minor release cycle. If two out
of three of Red Hat (RHEL), Novell (SLES) and Debian are willing to
agree in advance on a date to the nearest month, and thereby on a
combination of kernel, compiler toolchain, GNOME/KDE, X and Open``Office
versions, and agree to a six-month and 2-3 year long term cycle, then I
would happily realign Ubuntu’s short and long-term cycles around that. I
think the benefits of this sort of alignment to users, upstreams and the
distributions themselves would be enormous.

=== Making 5-a-day happen in "Your Loco team"! ===
The idea behind it is simple one: everybody does 5 bugs a day. Every
day. Everybody participates according to their abilities and interests.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/5-A-Day#Team explains how to set it up for your
Loco Team and as you can see at: http://daniel.holba.ch/5-a-day-stats/
there are a number of teams that have already accepted the challenge.
Get involved and help wipe out those pesky bugs. Everyone will benefit
from your help.

=== Ubuntu Forums Interview ===
p_quarles got in the UF Staff team last time we were looking for new
moderators. He has a Literature background (completing his PhD.) and
like many others who accepted to be interviewed, his journey with
computers started with the Commodore 64 when he was a kid. Please read
the whole interview here:

=== Tutorial of the Week ===
This week, we highlight a contribution by one of the biggest proponents
of 64-bit Ubuntu on the forums: Kilz, who wrote the impressive "Howto
Install 32 bit Firefox with Flash w/sound and Java for AMD64."
It's a thread that began almost two years ago, has received updates
through four releases and has even been recently adjusted. It's unusual
to see a tutorial receive so much attention, but when you read through
it, it's clear that this is a labor of love. If you use 64-bit Ubuntu
and want to get a fully functional Firefox, Kilz has made it easy for you.
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202537
See you in a week!
* Note: K.Mandla, one of the moderators on ubuntuforums, is the driving
force behind the "Tutorial of the Week" project. If you wish to suggest
a tutorial, you are welcome to do so here:

* Why we love Ubuntu Linux (or maybe we don't) - David M Williams of
itwire did a lot of research and posed the question to readers and LUG
members. Predictably, he got pros and cons on both sides of the kernel.
In a nutshell: Ubuntu is loved because it works out of the box on a wide
range of hardware, because Canonical has been smart and push out regular
updates on a reliable fixed schedule. The community support is
considered a major draw card, it's both friendly and helpful. The fact
it comes from Debian is also good sign. Yet, we don’t love Ubuntu
because it doesn’t work with all hardware, because it doesn’t default to
the KDE window system and because it comes from Debian but is published
under its own name. http://www.itwire.com/content/view/18160/1141/1/1/
* Ubuntu Linux 8.10 - While Hardy Heron was designed to be stable enough
to be a long-term support release, Intrepid Ibex promises to be packed
with more exciting features. Among those changes are likely to be a
number of mobility improvements as well as more flexible Internet
connectivity. On the desktop there is also likely to be a refreshed
desktop theme which has been in the pipeline for the past two releases.
http://mybroadband.co.za/news/Software/3749.html
* Running a business on desktop Linux - Small business owner are on
their own, and without IT support. They depend on computers, and just
want to be able to do their jobs without computer headaches. What do the
self-employed require of their computers? The list varies by the person
and the kind of work they do. Here are the essentials: ease of use,
readily available help, reliability, office application compatibility,
financial management, low cost, and performance. How does Linux rate?
According to Howard Fosdick of desktoplinux: "Linux empowers you to run
your business on low-cost computers that are deemed worthless within the
distorted perspective of the Windows world."
http://desktoplinux.com/articles/AT7506682379.html
* From newbie to 100 with Ubuntu Linux 8.04 - Your friends want you to
try out Ubuntu; forget the Microsoft and liberate your computer. Yet,
it's not such smooth sailing. Sure, you can download the Ubuntu CD, but
once you're sitting at a login prompt, what then? What can you actually
do with this thing? Actually lots, but unless a newcomer to Linux can
begin achieving some of the things they use a computer for – surfing the
internet, checking e-mail, viewing photographs – it will be a
disappointing experience. If there’s no incentive to persevere – like a
knowledgeable friend hanging around giving encouragement and advice –
it’s possible the user will simply return to that which they know
already and not come back. http://www.itwire.com/content/view/18227/1141/
* Ubuntu 8.04 KVM Benchmarks - the Kernel-based Virtual Machine
premiered with the Linux 2.6.20 kernel, and it has matured quite a bit
over the past year and a half since its christening. With that said,
phoronix is in the process of conducting new Linux virtualization
benchmarks to see how these various implementations compare today. While
the full comparison isn't yet ready, due to much interest surrounding
Linux virtualization on desktops and servers, they are publishing some
initial benchmarks from the Phoronix Test Suite when running Ubuntu 8.04
LTS as the host OS, and then running it as the guest operating system
with hardware-based acceleration through KVM.

* 'Major' Flash Player beta released - The "first major" Flash Player
update since Adobe Systems completed its 2005 acquisition of Macromedia
is due to be made available today as a beta. The Flash Player 10 beta
features a brand-new Just In Time (JIT) engine to load pixel bytecode
into the Flash Player engine.

== In The Blogosphere ==
* Ubuntu 8.04: Not quite there, yet - michuk decided to wait for the
final Hardy Heron release this time. After installation, he reviews many
of the new features of the release. His conclusion: "Ubuntu 8.04 shows
progress in comparison to 7.10. Many errors have been fixed, and
hardware is better supported. It is a pity that developers, instead of
concentrating on fixing bugs and improving stability, decided to add
many new features, introducing new bugs as a result. The most important
question is — do I recommend Ubuntu 8.04? If I were to answer simply yes
or no, the answer would be negative. If you need a good system that just
works, wait a few months before installing Hardy Heron, until it becomes
a really stable LTS."

* Go green: go Ubuntu - reddragdiva's laptop(HP Compaq 6710b, 2.2GHz
Core 2 Duo, 1GB memory), gets three hours in Ubuntu Hardy versus two
hours in Windows XP, doing the same work. She believes this is mostly
due to the Linux kernels "tickless idle", which has eliminated the
periodic timer tick when the CPU is idle. She is also using "powertop",
a Linux tool that finds the software component(s) that are making your
laptop use more power than necessary while it is idle. It then makes
suggestions on how to control these components to achieve longer battery
life on your laptop. http://reddragdiva.livejournal.com/473413.html
* How did Ubuntu end up so popular? - No one has hard numbers, of
course, but based on how much it’s talked about on the web, Ubuntu
appears to be the most popular Linux distribution for the home desktop
market. Every tech news article about Linux mentions Ubuntu and often
recommends Ubuntu for new users. The amazing thing is that even back
when Ubuntu was barely functional (no easy-codec-installation or
restricted-drivers-manager or Ubiquity installer) it was getting buzz.
What got it off the ground? As far as Ubuntu Cat can tell, here is what
Ubuntu had going for it: Canonical targets home users, Ubuntu had the
backing of some serious money from Mark Shuttleworth, free CDs, the
Ubuntu Forums, it's “Humanity Towards Others” philosophy, the lack of
confusing options, and the Ubuntu documentation.

=== Linux Distro Smack Down - the Podcast ===
Barton looks after Sun's relationships with the various GNU/Linux
communities as well as their relationship with the FSF. Recently he
managed to bring together the community leaders of three of the top
GNU/Linux distros (Zonker Brockmeier, OpenSUSE; Jono Bacon, Ubuntu;
Karsten Wade, Fedora), threw in Glynn Foster of Open Solaris, and
moderated a no-holds-barred panel. The panel itself wasn't recorded, but
immediately after it concluded, the five of them headed off to a
make-shift podcast studio, and recorded this discussion. Their suggest:
"Listen at your peril"

=== Metalinks, what are those? ===
The Ubuntu 8.04 release had official metalinks posted, and they are used
by Wubi(Ubuntu installer for Windows). Elliot Murphy met Anthony Bryan
of metalinker.org at Bar Camp Miami, and he taught Elliot about metalinks:
* Metalinks were designed for describing the locations of large files
that are multi-located (shared via many mirrors and with P2P) to
increase usability, reliability, speed, and availability. If a server
goes down during a download, download programs can automatically switch
to another mirror. Or segments can be downloaded from different places
at the same time, automatically, which can make downloads much faster.
Besides location, it also describes content. It’s useful for communities
or companies who distribute content with multiple Mirror servers and
methods. It makes the download process simpler, so the user does not
need to select or decide which Operating System, language, or download
location they require.

=== Ubuntu landed on Berlin metro system ===
“Berliner Fenster”, the company responsible for the content of the
television system installed inside underground vehicles, (more than
3.700 displays), were so kind, (thank you!), to provide a free spot for
our release party. Timed with the release on April 24th, there were
small spots viewable by an audience of about 1.5 million people per day,
about the release party. This kind of advertising can't be bought and
everyone should visit the link to see pics of the spots that were run.

=== Ubuntu featured in Vermist(Movie) ===
n00.be spotted the Ubuntu operating system in the Belgian movie
"Vermist", where police detectives apparently use Ubuntu as their
operating system of choice. Follow the link below and you can see a
screenshot from the movie. His review of the movie: "it was pretty crap,
so don’t bother with it." http://n00.be/archives/697/
