Eagle-eyed readers may have noticed that the beta of Launchpad 1.0 went public today!
As you’re reading The Fridge, you’re probably pretty familiar with Launchpad. You know, of course, that it makes it easier for individuals and communities to collaborate on free software projects, right? And it goes without saying that Zope, Silva CMS, Jokosher, Creative Commons, WengoPhone and PledgeBank are just some of the users other than Ubuntu.
So, what’s new in 1.0?
As well as changes to the interface, the Launchpad team have also taken the opportunity to make some improvements to the underlying code.
Mark Shuttleworth has more to say on the subject. If you’ve got any feedback about Launchpad, come join us in #launchpad on irc.freenode.net or sign up to the launchpad-users mailing list!
Got any questions about K/Ubuntu that have been burning inside you, but you have never known who to ask? Now we’ve managed to secure a regular slot with Canonical’s Ubuntu Community Manager.
Following from the great success of the Ubuntu Open Week question sessions, mister Jono Bacon will now be having a regular date, once a month for Community Question Time.
There will be a one-hour time limit, so it’ll definitely be a case of quick-fire to ensure that as many people get their questions in and their answers out! To join in the fun you’ll need to get on to IRC and join #ubuntu-meeting to watch the conversation develop.
If you’re also also wanting to ask questions, then here’s how; also join #ubuntu-meeting-questions and prefix what you’re wanting to know with QUESTION. It should look something like this:
<choclover> QUESTION: Will the next release of Ubuntu come with free chocolate?Look forward to seeing you all there, there will be plenty of room for everybody!
