=== Mir + Unity QML + Unity APIs = Unity ===
Olli Ries, Engineering Director for Unity and Display Server at
Canonical, announces and shares some insights about the Mir display
server and Unity QML. According to what Ries calls their ambitious
goal, Unity will transition back to Qt/QML, and Mir will replace
Xserver in 2013.

=== Not convinced by rolling releases ===
Mark Shuttleworth, responded to the case of rolling releases.
Shuttleworth expresses that he is not convinced of the idea as it
injects uncertainty where certainty is needed, among other issues.
The proposal rose up again this year and Shuttleworth allowed the core
engineering team at Canonical to create a "trial balloon" proposal.
Shuttleworth noted that the proposal put forward by Rick Spencer was
not final action as it was not put forward to the Technical Board and
that, though the Community Council was briefed on it, they had not
taken action either.
Shuttleworth indicated that there were unexpected findings by the team
putting the proposal together. The releases, the mechanisms for
releases, and the release paradigms all presented conundrums that
needed to be untangled. Shuttleworth also indicated that some
expectations expressed by stakeholders, such as providing support for
PowerPC architecture, were unrealistic based on the nature of today's
consumer market.
Beyond that, Shuttleworth called for an end to what he termed as
"melodrama" and indicated that the "sky was not falling." While
noting that there has been a paradigm shift from integration to
leadership, Shuttleworth also stated that those who feel the need to
move on should not "poison the well behind them." Shuttleworth noted
that there is now - what he calls - a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
for Ubuntu to dominate in the consumer electronics space, and it is
time to strike while the iron is hot.
The post ends with questions to try to steer the discussion back into
debating the rolling release proposal prior to it being submitted to
the Technical Board later in March.

=== Follow Up from "Let's Discuss Interim Releases" ===
Rick Spencer follows up on his original proposal to switch Ubuntu to a
Rolling Release. He starts by reassuring that the proposal was a call
for discussion, and then invites everyone interested to provide input.
The final proposal is planned to be put to the Technical Board on
March 18th.

=== Ubuntu Global Jam, Novosibirsk 2013 ===
Maia Kozheva writes that at Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University
in the Russian Federation, a Global Jam was held on March 4th with a
discussion of Linux deployment in schools as well as a master class on
creating packages for upload to PPAs. Translations, Steam, and gaming
on Linux were also discussed.

=== Measuring Jam ===
Randall Ross compares the metrics of Global Jams being registered
around the planet. He notes some worry about the decline in Global
Jams during the Quantal cycle, but reflects that Ubuntu is in a growth
phase with the difference between Quantal and Raring being positive.

== Ubuntu Cloud News ==
=== Lock-In: Why Your OS Choice Matters in the Cloud ===
Robbie Williamson reflects on a recent article, which expresses vendor
lock-in concerns in the cloud market. Williamson writes that important
choices when selecting an operating system include selecting an
independently produced OS, and selecting an OS with service
orchestration support. He makes the case for using Ubuntu to fill this
role. "Obviously I'm going to encourage the use of Ubuntu Server, but
not just because I work for Canonical or am an Ubuntu community
member, but because I actually believe it's currently the best option
around."
