=== XMir update for Ubuntu 13.10 ===
Oliver Ries announces that while the Mir team is on track to support
native Mir + Unity 8 running on Ubuntu Touch images, they not going to
be able to deliver Mir + XMir + Unity 7 as the default experience on
the desktop for the Ubuntu 13.10. Oliver says "Mir has made tremendous
progress and is currently available on the Ubuntu archive for use, but
there are still some outstanding quality issues that we want to
resolve before we feel comfortable turning it on by default" and links
to a Q&A for further information.

=== Jonathan Riddell: Kubuntu Beastie Fixing ===
Jonathan Riddell addresses a positive response to a recent bug report,
writing "Bugs are a pain, especially when a fiddly one comes along
involving Python bindings, the number of people who understand SIP is
pretty low. So it's nice we were able to fix it quickly." Jonathan
quotes from a bug report and adds "Wish we could do them all that
smoothly!"

phone and desktop interfaces."

=== Jono Bacon: Karma Machine: An Example of Ubuntu App Convergence ===

has reached another completion hit, version 0.41 is one of the most
all-covered and complete icon themes over there." Rafael thanks Julien
Lavergne and Alexander Andjelkovich and says "If you're going to

=== French National Police Switch 37,000 Desktop PCs to Linux ===
Klint Finley of Wired.com reports that France's National Gendarmerie
is now running 37,000 desktop PCs with a custom version of the Linux
operating system, and the agency plans to move all 72,000 of its
desktop machines to the open source OS. Klint says this is one of the
largest known government deployments of Linux on the desktop which
started in 2008 when it switched 5,000 users to a Linux OS based on
Ubuntu.

=== Ubuntu 13.10: Meet the Linux distro with a bizarre Britney Spears
fixation ===
Scott Gilbertson of The Register reports that Ubuntu 13.10 is shaping
up to be "a solid, if slightly dull, Linux distro" and that there have
been no major visual changes to the desktop, only a couple of expanded
features for the Unity Dash, which means 13.10, due 17 October, won't
look all that different from the last release of Ubuntu when it
arrives. Scott concludes "So while the big stuff is under the hood or
yet to come, there are a couple of new things you'll notice if you
decided to test this beta. The biggest and most obvious is the new
Smart Scopes service, which adds a ton of new search results to the
Unity Dash."

=== Ubuntu user replaces proprietary OS with Ubuntu on mother's
computer, the result: "she loves it" ===
razvi of iloveubuntu writes that the Ubuntu-passionate user
Suicidalparrot shared an interesting personal happening, namely,
installing Ubuntu 13.04 on the computer of the user's mother, shifting
the mother's machine from the proprietary Windows 7 to the
solid-as-a-rock Ubuntu 13.04 with the result "she loves it, especially
since it went from a barely usable hunk of junk to running like a
brand new machine." razvi adds that perhaps the most important aspect
of this is the reminder of how each one of us is able to recommend
Ubuntu to a friend on a daily basis.

=== Ubuntu 14.04 LTS To Stay On GTK/GNOME 3.8? ===
Andrew of WebUpd8 writes that Sebastien Bacher, software engineer at
Canonical, recently posted a message on the Ubuntu Desktop mailing
list in which he proposes that Ubuntu stays on GTK/GNOME 3.8 for the
next cycle (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS). Andrew says "Ubuntu 14.04 will lag two
releases behind GNOME which will affect Ubuntu GNOME, Ubuntu users who
are contributing to GNOME as well as some non-core GNOME applications
that require the latest GNOME technologies" but points out that
Sebastien Bacher's message is just a suggestion.

=== The demand for Ubuntu continues to grow, Ubuntu already shipping
in India, China, Mexico, USA, Ukraine ===
razvi of iloveubuntu refers to an article published by Ubuntu's Maria
Bonnefon which looks at the areas of the world where Ubuntu is shipped
on computers and lists the exciting amount of Ubuntu partners. From
the article razvi quotes "The growth of Ubuntu has also been driven
through our strong partnership with major hardware OEM brands such as
Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus and Acer. Not only is Ubuntu generally
available pre-loaded from these leading OEMs, but in many regions
we've entered into full retail partnership with dedicated stores."

=== Canonical Store Adds New Mug, T-Shirts & Mousemat Set ===
Joey-Elijah Sneddon of OMG! Ubuntu! reports that Canonical's online
shop has been restocked ahead of the release of Ubuntu 13.10 with a
number of brand new items including a new look Ubuntu mug and a
redesigned mouse mat. Joey provides illustrations of the various items
but reminds us that the drawback to buying from the Canonical Store is
the shipping costs which remain slightly exorbitant for most outside
of the UK (and for many within).

=== Stylish Saucy Salamander-branded t-shirts available for purchase
on Canonical Shop ===
razvi of iloveubuntu shows us some t-shirts that have been created
with the upcoming release of Saucy Salamander in mind and that are
available from Ubuntu's official shop. razvi adds "The Saucy
Salamander t-shirts come for both men and women, retaining the same
design with certain gender-specific modifications."

=== Unity 7 updated with minor-yet-relevant new names in Ubuntu 13.10 ===
razvi of iloveubuntu writes that Unity 7 has been enriched in Ubuntu
13.10 with newly-renamed text descriptions, optimizing its parts with
more natural names. razvi provides some screenshots to illustrate the
changes and says "The new names, while minor, significantly strengthen
and improve the Dash's identity and clarity, removing inconsistencies
and incomplete own identity, aligning the Dash's power to optimized
names."

=== Mir 0.0.13 Released With Various Fixes ===
Michael Larabel of Phoronix writes "While Mir won't be part of the
default Ubuntu 13.10 desktop, it will be part of Ubuntu Touch 13.10
and development is continuing in a steadfast manner to make it ready
for the desktop in 2014. Mir 0.0.13 was released today while bumping
the Mir Server library to version 5." Michael lists some of the
changes and says that the updated packages should be available in the
Ubuntu Saucy archive soon.

=== ezgo - Free And Open Source Software In Taiwan's Schools ===
Franklin Weng writes "Free and Open Source Software in Taiwan has made
impressive strides thanks to the work of the 'ezgo' team" and talks at
length about what the ezgo project is. Franklin informs us that
Kubuntu is now being used as their base distribution, that the New
Taipei City government decided to use a free and open source operating
system instead of Microsoft Windows in their new 10,000 PCs for
elementary schools, and that ezgo 11 was selected as their
pre-installed OS.
