=== Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) Beta 2 Freeze is now in effect. ===

As of writing this post, the Ubuntu 12.04 Beta 2 release was a week
away and the archive was put in hard freeze to prepare for it. During
the freeze, all uploads to main must be approved by a member of the
release team, so if you have fixes which are important to get in,
please get in touch as soon as possible (and preferably, get your
packages uploaded in parallel!).

== LoCo News ==

=== Is Ubuntu Global Jam an Event for Me? ===

Charlene Tessier writes about her experience being the lead for her
area's Ubuntu Global Jam event. "Well, first I was told there is a
theme – Jam (stuff you put on bread) and Jammies (aka pajamas)? What
kind of tech event is this? But that’s not all. Let’s make it [a] day
event with a variety of different activities for all levels of
participation," wrote Tessier. "Did anything happen with the theme you
ask?" You will have to read the blog post to find out.

application as it even included nice graphs to help visualise some of
the plans the LoCo is putting into place.”

== Launchpad News ==

=== Why there is always time ===

Dan Harrop-Griffiths explains why there is always time for usability
testing. Testing methods can range from very simple to very complex,
and setting up "basic tests with a handful of users, running them and
then writing up the results doesn’t need to take more than a day or
two."

=== s.fox: An Interview with lovinglinux ===

lovinglinux talks about becoming interested in computers, Linux and
Ubuntu; “I started to play with computers in early 80’s, when my
parents gave me a TK 85, an unlicensed ZX81 clone. But it wasn’t until
the early 90’s, when I entered the University, that I would start
using PC’s as we know today, mostly for research and entertainment. I
don’t know exactly when I became interested in Linux, but I remember a
few unsuccessful attempts to use some distributions that I received
with computer magazines, until I came in contact with Ubuntu Hardy
Heron, back in 2008. I guess many users like me were drawn to Ubuntu
because of Vista. Never looked back since then.”

=== Jeremy Bicha: Ubuntu Docs: A Call for Help ===

state of Free Consumer Software and KDE.

=== Canonical Design Team: The Pangolin wallpaper selection takes flight ===

For another cycle a selection of images has been put forward for
inclusion in Ubuntu. As there have been some questions on other blogs
about the process, I thought it was worth doing a quick refresher.
Each release we ask the community contributors whose images were
included in the last release if they’d like to help choose the images
that should go into the upcoming release.

=== Ubuntu Linux and Canonical Moving Forward, Two Years After
Leadership Change ===

Sean Michael Kerner of Internet News.com writes "It's a move that
today in 2012 is still working out well for Ubuntu and Canonical. I
recently got the chance to chat with Silber and she told me point
blank that there is no way she is going back to her former position at
Canonical, she's loves her job as CEO too much."

=== Say Hello to Canonical's new Linux desktop: Ubuntu 12.04 beta review ===

Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols of zdnet opines about his experience with
Ubuntu 12.04 beta. Vaughan-Nichols writes, "Canonical’s next long-term
support release of its flagship Linux distribution, Ubuntu 12.04 is in
late beta. This next release, due out on April 26th, is in beta now.
I’ve been using it for several weeks now and so far, so good." He
continues, "I rather like Unity as well. What Ubuntu’s developers have
really been doing with this release is not so much getting HUD ready,
as they have been cleaning Unity up and getting it ready for business
users."

=== Why Linux is Dead on the Desktop ===

PCWorld Writer Tony Bradley opines about why he feels that Linux
cannot compete on the desktop, and cites his struggle and effort to
try to use Ubuntu for a month as a factor.

enjoy an old-school Classic Panel look, and how to get it setup in

=== Ubuntu 12.04 to be without Wubi installer ===

Sam Osborne of imediamonkey discusses the proposed removal of Wubi in
Ubuntu 12.04. Osborne writes, "For those unaware, Wubi (Windows-based
UBuntu Installer) allows the user to install Ubuntu alongside Windows,
without having to partition their hard drive. Put simply, the
installer adds an extra boot option at boot up – giving users the
option to boot into either Windows or Ubuntu." The article reveals
that one of the reasons for this move is to make it possible for Wubi
to be maintained and enhanced outside the Ubuntu development cycle.
