About our Mailing List

Simon Quigley runs through the advantages and disadvantages of having a mailing list hosted by Launchpad instead of using the traditional Ubuntu lists. He also summarizes some of the newsletters that he forwards to the list and concludes: "Although it has it's downsides, using Launchpad for our mailing list has been very smooth for us and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, in my honest opinion. So we will continue to use it."

Joseph writes about her long weekend in Pasadena from January 21-24th when she participated in the 14th Annual Southern California Linux Expo (SCALE14x) which also included the first UbuCon Summit.

Dustin Kirkland: adapt install [anything]

Dustin Kirkland back from speaking at SCALE14x, tells us about 'adapt' which is a package installer that will install any package from any Ubuntu release onto any version of ubuntu. He says that this allows the running of an LTS but also allows the installation of packages from later versions of Ubuntu and that this is achieved through the use of architecture independent LXD system containers. A PDF of the slides from Dustin's SCALE14x talk is provided by link.

My Ubuntu Phone is my 'mini' PC for traveling

Marcos Costales writes how when he travels he likes to update his blog, upload photographs, and share his thoughts, but because he doesn't code while travelling he doesn't carry his laptop. He informs us that he purchased a bluetooth keyboard and mouse and discovered a "new Ubuntu Phone." Marcos concludes his post with a photograph of his set-up and says: "From now, I'll traveling with the keyboard, mouse and the phone. Now my phone is my real portable and small PC :))"
