Ubuntu Cloud Day, a talk from Thomas Bushnell at Google about their
deployment of Ubuntu desktops, and more. She wraps up with a quick
history of UDS itself, including a full list of past locations for the

== LoCo News ==
=== Tampere Ubuntu 12.04 LTS release party in pictures ===
Timo Jyrinki shares photos from the 12.04 release party in Tampere,
Finland which featured presentations, software demos and "nice little
dinner and wine served at the end!"
http://losca.blogspot.com/2012/05/tampere-ubuntu-1204-lts-release-party.html
=== Pangolin Party in Terrassa ===
The Catalan LoCo Team threw a 12.04 release party at the IES Nicolau
Copernic School in Terrassa, near Barcelona. It featured an install
root, lectures, a games room and an Ubuntu Server jam. With school
students offering food and coffee, more then 200 registered attendees
and some sponsorship, Rafael Carreras reports that the party turned
out to be quite a success.
http://blogs.fsfe.org/rcarreras/?p=128
=== Forum ubuntu-it gets a new theme and a new engine ===
Leo Iannacone reports that inspired by the "ubuntu-it website and
ubuntu design guidelines," the Italian forum theme has been upgraded.
The forum database has also been migrated to a different engine.
http://en.leoiannacone.com/2012/05/forum-ubuntu-it-gets-a-new-theme-and-a-new-engine/
== Launchpad News ==
=== One in a million ===
The one-millionth bug was filed on Launchpad, a milestone that marks
seven years of work and dedication. Hitting the one-million mark helps
show the success that Launchpad has reached and how it has matured
over the period of time. J.C. Sackett notes that they are "handling 1
million bugs better now than we were handling 500,000 then." PPAs and
set/reduced downtime are some features that have contributed to its
success.

== Ubuntu Forums News ==
=== New Theme is Here!!! ===
Mike Basinger announces that the Ubuntu Forums are now sporting a new
theme that matches the updated branding. In addition to the new theme,
a planned upgrade in the near future will bring "a mobile theme that
will be a great benefit to our users, plus other new features."

=== Jono Bacon: Precision and Reliability in Ubuntu Accomplishments ===
Jono Bacon talks about the large number of users who have begun
testing Ubuntu Accomplishments, and how testing could be made to
complement the new contributions by continuing to push quality and
precision. He discusses a new tool called Battery that "runs all the
accomplishments and feeds them this data that will cause an
accomplishment to succeed as well as fail." Planning for version 0.2
of Ubuntu Accomplishments is now under way.
http://www.jonobacon.org/2012/05/14/precision-and-reliability-in-ubuntu-accomplishments/
Bacon shares more improvements in a later post as well:

=== Jonathan Carter: The "Software Packages" Meta-Track at UDS ===
Jonathan Carter blogs about software and packaging related sessions at
the Ubuntu Developer Summit. Some of the big topics were
reorganization of Ubuntu software archives, Application Review Board,
the future of MOTU.
http://jonathancarter.org/2012/05/15/the-software-packages-meta-track-at-uds/
=== Martin Pitt: Debian/Ubuntu Packages for PostgreSQL 9.2 Beta 1 ===
Martin Pitt calls for testers of the first Beta of PostgreSQL 9.2.
It's available via PPA for Ubuntu 12.04 and in the NEW queue for
Debian. Pitt also mentions that the postgresql-common test suite found
a regression, which has now been submitted upstream.
http://www.piware.de/2012/05/packages-for-postgresql-9-2-beta-1-now-available/
=== Jonathan Carter: Launchpad.net: bug 1 000 000 ===
Jonathan Carter extends congratulations to the Launchpad team on
reaching the milestone of the one-millionth bug filed, and for their
success at building a platform that scales well. Carter goes on to
note that, for every bug filed, 67 iPads have been sold, marking a
clear target for the Edubuntu project to focus on in order to compete
in the education markets.

=== Kees Cook: USB AVR fun ===
At the Ubuntu Developer Summit Kees Cook was able to convince some
folks to load up a USB stick for a bit of fun with volunteers who
don't mind an Xorg crash, "so we could watch Xorg crash and wedge
their console" to test the behavior of an AVR microprocessor connected
to USB. He shares code details of how he did it, and progress of the
Xorg bug which has subsequently been reported.
http://www.outflux.net/blog/archives/2012/05/16/usb-avr-fun/
=== Mythbuntu: Default download link for 12.04 ISO is now 64-bit! ===
Following the release of MythTV 0.25, Mythbuntu announces that the
default download for the 12.04 release is 64-bit. Reasons for the
change include the fact that half of the users are currently using the
64-bit version, and two-thirds of the users have 64-bit capable
machines.
http://www.mythbuntu.org/node/365
=== Dylan McCall: Adventure and excitement at UDS-Q! ===
Dylan McCall shares a recap of UDS-Q. McCall first shares some details
about the Ubuntu ecosystem, which ended up being a session "about how
Ubuntu is doing as a platform for developers outside the project
itself". He also mentions later sessions, which covered outreach to
application developers. Additionally, he discussed sessions covering
localized ISOs, installer slide shows, and the new sound theme. He
wraps up by sharing some photos and some details from his favorite
plenaries.
http://www.dylanmccall.com/blog/2012/05/16/home-from-uds-q/
=== IRC Council: Ubuntu IRC Council Position ===
A call for nominations for a spot on the IRC Council has been issued.
"If you are an Ubuntu Member with a competent technical knowledge of
IRC, a passion for IRC and a willingness to help maintain effective
governance of our IRC community then you could be the leader we are
looking for."
http://ubottu.com/ircc/2012/05/17/ubuntu-irc-council-position/
=== Martin Pitt: To boldly go where no test has gone before ===
Following the success of the QA related changes in 12.04, Martin Pitt
hopes to extend automated testing even further, namely to the upsteam.
He shares some ideas to begin with: fake hardware tests, work with
Gnome developers to simplify and streamline testing, fake network
devices, etc.

== In The Press ==
=== 125,000 Ubuntu PCs to land in Pakistani students' laps ===
The government in the Pakistani province of Punjab has started handing
out free Ubuntu-based laptops to college and university students.
125,000 laptops have been issued to be handed out so far, in an
attempt by the government to support the local IT ecosystem. They plan
to hand out twice as many laptops in 2013.
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/05/15/punjab_ubuntu_free_laptops_students/
=== Ubuntu 12.04 LTS review ===
PCPro writer "arien Graham-Smith describes the latest Ubuntu release
as "an operating system that's ready for the big time." But he also
thinks Ubuntu will remain hamstrung by lack of official support for
software like Microsoft Office and Adobe Photoshop.
http://www.pcpro.co.uk/reviews/software/374647/ubuntu-12-04-lts
=== Linux Desktops: Cinnamon vs. Unity ===
Matt Hartley, Datamation, takes a look at both the Cinnamon and Unity
desktop experiences and shares his thoughts on each. He concludes that
"both desktop environments provide a strong, reliable experience" and
makes suggestions based on beginner, intermediate and advanced users
and says "if you haven't tried Unity in Ubuntu 12.04, don't let past
experiences color your judgment of the desktop."
http://www.datamation.com/open-source/linux-desktops-cinnamon-vs.-unity-1.html
== In The Blogosphere ==
=== Ubuntu Developer Summit 12.10 Recap ===
Michael Larabel of Phoronix gives an effusive yet skeptical look
towards the future of Ubuntu. For one, he certainly wasn't
entertained by EA's keynote because it introduced what he describes as
"crappy" games into the Ubuntu Software Center.
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_uds_1210&num=1
=== Canonical's Ubuntu Business Desktop Remix Evolves ===
Christopher Tozzi at The Var Guy takes a look at the latest revisions
to the Ubuntu Business Desktop Remix, stating that there have been "no
sweeping changes" since it was introduced in February of 2012, but
that it has been updated for the 12.04 LTS and "as such will likely
enjoy greater appeal to enterprise users who want to stick to Ubuntu
releases with long support life cycles." Tozzi goes on to speculate
upon the position of the Business Desktop Remix in Canonical's overall
business strategy.

=== An example of the usefulness of bittorrent for entirely legal purposes ===
Wil Wheaton reflects upon "the belief in Hollywood that bittorrent
exists solely for stealing things" and gives an example of bittorrent
being used for entirely legal purposes: downloading Ubuntu.
http://wilwheaton.typepad.com/wwdnbackup/2012/05/an-example-of-the-usefulness-of-bittorrent-for-entirely-legal-purposes.html
=== Ubuntu Unity Used By Super Heroes on TV Show ===
Joey Sneddon of OMG! Ubuntu! shares a clip from children's show
"Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters" where characters can "clearly be seen to
be running a customised version of Ubuntu Unity desktop on their
laptop" as are Evolution and the Ambiance theme.
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/05/ubuntu-unity-on-go-busters-tv/
=== The Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Ubuntu ===
Jonquil McDaniel shares her list of 10 advantages and disadvantages of
using Ubuntu. Pros include amount of support available, ease of use,
speed compared to Windows and package management and among the cons
are quality of support, problems with upgrades, and speed compared to
other Linux distributions.
