=== Field experiment: fix an Ubuntu bug ===

We want to make it easy to get involved in Ubuntu on a broad basis,
but also make it easy to just go ahead and do something as a drive-by
contribution.

At UDS we talked a lot about making it easy to just go and fix a bug
that bothers you. We did a couple of improvements to our documentation
and some other bits here and there.

What I now need is your feedback. It'd be super-sweet if you never
just went and fixed a bug in Ubuntu, you now just tried to do that. I
don't want to give too many instructions, because I want to see how
you go about finding docs, which tools you use, what you do to make it
happen, so the instructions are thus:

 * Wear your hardhat.
 * Remember an Ubuntu bug that bothered you or find one you'd like to work on
 * Take notes. It's important that you note down what exactly you
tried to do, what worked and what didn't work. We want to fix the
process harder and make it super-smooth.
 * Add a comment to this blog entry or mail dholbach at ubuntu dot com
with your findings.

Thanks a bunch in advance. This is an awesome opportunity for you to
not only fix a bug in Ubuntu, but also help fix the process involved.

I'll report the findings in a couple of weeks.

=== Call For Testing: Karmic Firefox Users (or willing to install
Karmic in a VM) ===

The Ubuntu QA team issued the following call for testing on June 18th.

Following up a previous call for testing for Hardy users, we are
calling Karmic users to test the Firefox 3.6.4 upgrade.

As we wrote, Firefox 3.0 and xulrunner 1.9 are now unsupported by
Mozilla. We are going to release Firefox 3.6.4 as a minor update to
the 3.6 series in Lucid. This will also be rolled out to Hardy, Jaunty
and Karmic (along with xulrunner 1.9.2.4). The update for Lucid is
quite trivial, but the update in Hardy, Jaunty and Karmic is not quite
as simple.

Also, we have added a new testcase "XulRunner Applications" aiming to
test that the applications using xulrunner keep working correctly
after the update. These applications need to be tested both in Hardy
and Karmic.

Please, check the testing instructions if you are willing to help with
this important security update.

=== Community Leadership Summit 2010 ===

Interview Series - LoCos, Leaders, and Lessons Learned, Amber Graner
talks to Bret Fledderjohn of the Ubuntu Pennsylvania Local Community
Team. Bret talks about the tools the team uses, events they attend as

=== Upcoming M Cycle Re Approvals ===

Just to clarify the LoCo Council will be contacting teams for
reapproval this cycle, they were chosen at random.  As you can imagine
the list of teams is large and this process only started last cycle.
If your team is ON THIS LIST

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoCouncil/LoCoTeamReApproval

Then you will receive an email from us regarding the re approval
process. Every team at some stage will go through this process.

If you've any other queries just ask us, there are 6 of us on the
council and are here to help you where we can.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoCouncil

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/loco-contacts/2010-June...

=== LoCo Team Expiration ===

If you see that your team is expiring from Launchpad and it's only
been a year, _PLEASE_ notify one of the council members, or the
council list ASAP. The council list is loco-council@lists.ubuntu.com
_PLEASE_ check this.

We are holding re-approvals every two years, not every year, so your
team _will_ fall off the launchpad 'approved' group if we do not take
action. This is change from years past, so the approval lengths are
not set correctly yet. In the future we will script something to take
care of this, but for now please be aware of the issue.

=== Cassidy: Linux could ease schools' tech crunch ===

Members of the Ubuntu California LoCo team and their efforts to bring
Edubuntu to classrooms are highlighted in this Mecury News article.

Mike Cassidy of Mercury News reports on how Linux can help
cash-strapped schools deploy computers in the school and possibly save
money and administration resources alike. Many schools will have some
obstacles to overcome, some schools have existing contracts or
software that specifically relies on Microsoft Windows, however, Mike
suggests that Linux is something that any struggling school should
think about.

10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) release. Otter notes in his article, "The

Meerkat" ===

The new default image organizer for Ubuntu 10.10 will be Shotwell, as
apposed to F-Spot which has been the default image organizing and
manipulating suite in Ubuntu for several releases. According to some,
Shotwell is better integrated with the Gnome desktop and even though
it's still under development, offers a great photo organizing solution
to users old and new.

Canonical's continued movement into Commercial and Enterprise Level
Support. The article points out that Canonical is moving into a shared

=== Perfectly good waste of "social" ===

Matt Asay, Canonical COO, talks about the trust that is created by the
use of social media.  Matt admits, "Yes, much of social networking is
just idle chitchat. But even that chitchat helps to lay the foundation
for trust, which in turn is the key to fueling trade, trade which
makes us rich?together."

The article points to studies that have been conducted by Nielsen and
others on just how much time and money is spent (or wasted) on
socializing.

Matt also points to an arguement by Matt Ridley in the Wall Street
Journal as well as a blog post by Glyn Moody.

Matt says, "So don't feel guilty when you contribute your time to
open-source projects, or Facebook. You're helping to drive global
trade. See what your boss thinks of that."

=== GoogleCL Brings Google Services to the Command Line ===

Lifehacker reports on the June 18, 2010, GoogleCL announcment:

Linux/Mac/Windows: Google's new utility, GoogleCL, allows you to
access a handful of Google services from any *nix command line.
Google's services are pretty easily accessible in their individual
webapps, but if you've got a hankering for the command line, this is
awesome.

Having Google's services at your fingertips in the Terminal may not
sound super cool, but if you want to incorporate, say, fetching Google
Calendar events, Google contacts, Google Docs, or Picasa photos into
your scripts, GoogleCL is extremely handy (and long overdue). GoogleCL
is a python program that can access and perform a number of actions in
Blogger, Calendar, Contacts, Docs, Picasa, and YouTube.

Ubuntu users can download a .deb package and install it right away,
though Mac and Windows installation is a bit trickier.

=== 5 Things New Linux Converts Should Know ===

Jonathan DePrizio, Techthrob.com, talks about 5 things he believes new
linux users should know.  Those 5 things include:

 1.  Drives don't have letters, they have mountpoints
 2.  There is no registry
 3.  Software comes from the repos, not CDs or websites
 4.  Don't login as root
 5.  Help is available - and it's free!
