== Launchpad News ==
=== Ending support for multi-tenancy ===
Curtis Hovey writes, "Launchpad is ending support for multi-tenancy
for branches and bugs to ensure that projects can manage the
disclosure of private information. This is a fundamental change to how
launchpad permits communities to share projects. Very few users will
be affected by this change, but several communities will need to
change how they work with private bugs and branches."

=== Customisable bug listings in beta! ===
Dan Harrop-Griffiths posts, "The information displayed with bug
listings is often not what you want to see - you might not be
interested in bug heat and want to see bug age, but it's not there.
Looking at this problem, we've come up with a new beta feature: custom
bug listings.  A lot of you have said that you'd like to be able to
filter bugs in a way that works best for you."

=== Jason Gerard DeRose: Note on Ubuntu One dropping CouchDB sync ===
"In the short run, this has little impact on Novacut," writes Jason
DeRose of Novacut.  "Because of the scaling difficulties presented by
the particular way Ubuntu One needed to use CouchDB, we couldn't
reliably sync larger databases like dmedia through Ubuntu One anyway,
so we weren't counting on this being available (not that it wouldn't
have been nice)."
DeRose says Novacut will follow U1DB development closely and in the
end they may stick with CouchDB at least on the server-side.
"Regardless, I'm going to be involved with the U1DB efforts where I
imagine my experience building "painfully ambitious" desktop apps that
use documented-oriented databases will prove useful," concludes
DeRose.

=== Randall Ross: Ubuntu Community Lexicon, Part 2 & 3 ===
In this ongoing series of post UDS-P blog articles, Randal Ross
disgrams the Ubuntu Community.
Randall says, "During UDS-P, I asked publicly for a favour: When we
speak about community, lets use adjectives. Let's use more than one
adjective if one isn't enough. Let's use precise language to help
frame the problems we are trying to solve in the Precise cycle.
To that end, and being a visual thinker, I have begun to map out the
Ubuntu community as a first step in developing a lexicon. I hope this
will help us frame our discussions and develop a common understanding
of what our community looks like."

=== Jono Bacon: The Ubuntu Commons ===
"One of the most wonderful things about Open Source and collaborative
community is that every community member participates in a commons; a
shared area of community real-estate in which we can all contribute,"
says Bacon.  In this post Bacon takes a look at the Ubuntu "commons".
He looks at: Our Commons, An Open Commons, Ubuntu for Everyone, and
The Opportunity.

=== Ubuntu tells dumped CouchDB: It's not you, it's me ===
The fact that UbuntuOne dropped CouchDB (a popular NoSQL option) as
it's backend database is attributed, via a quote from Canonical
employee John Rowland Lenton that "[The UbuntuOne] situation is rather
unique, and we were unable to resolve some of the issues we came
across."

=== Will Ubuntu PCs in Retail Succeed Where Mail Order Failed? ===
Christopher Tozzi shares some thoughts on Canonical's recent
announcements regarding retail sales of Ubuntu in Asia and Europe.
Tossi reviews some of the history of Ubuntu sales, including efforts
by Dell primarily in the United States and speculates whether the
different market and model (stores vs online) will improve their
chances. Either way he says "it's reassuring for the open source
community to see Canonical continuing to invest in desktop Linux."
