Ubuntu Developer Summits Now Online and Every Three Months

Jono Bacon announces a change to the Ubuntu Developer Summit schedule which will be exclusively online and take place every three months, writing that the “new format of UDS provides an enhanced level of openness and transparency that is optimized for online participants.” Bacon announces that the “first online UDS will be taking place next week from 5th – 6th March 2013 from 2pm UTC – 8pm UTC and the next event will take place around the same time as the originally scheduled physical UDS in Oakland.”

Let's Discuss Interim Releases (and a Rolling Release)

Rick Spencer kicks off discussion on the Ubuntu development list of a proposal which suggests “dropping non-LTS releases and move to a rolling release plus LTS releases right now.”

Jono Bacon: On Moving To An Online Ubuntu Developer Summit

Jono Bacon discusses the move to an online-only Ubuntu Developer Summit, and shares some of the benefits that he sees in the new format. He notes that there were some difficulties in hearing sessions in past remote participation, but those issues should be fixed by having everyone use their own microphones and webcams. He also discusses how the use of Hangouts and IRC will allow more users to be able to participate, and help retain personal connections despite not being face-to-face.

Jono Bacon: XDA Developers and Ubuntu Touch

Jono Bacon thanks the XDA Developers who have been working on porting Ubuntu Touch during the Ubuntu Touch Port-o-thon, which aims to bring Ubuntu images to more devices. Bacon writes that there was a great response on the XDA forums, and as a result Ubuntu has been ported to several new devices. He notes that David Planella and Daniel Holbach are working on engaging with the XDA Developers to grow a relationship and work more closely together.
