=== Ubuntu App Showdown: let the voting begin! ===
David Planella reports that out of a surprising 150 applicants to the
Ubuntu App Showdown, a remarkable 132 of them have qualified and made
it to the final list, which has now been released. Judges will now
have a full week to test and vote on the apps. Meanwhile, apps will
begin being added to the Software Centre, where users will review and
rate the apps to decide the community portion of the contest.

=== New Session Menu Lands in Ubuntu 12.10 ===
Joey Sneddon, OMG! Ubuntu!, brings comparison between the old and new
session menu under Ubuntu. Sneddon states:"The new applet merges items
from the previously separate User and System menus into one new look,
unified drop-down."

=== Dell's Ubuntu Laptop Program Enters Beta, 'Blows Away' Expectations ===
Katherine Noyes, PCWorld, reports on the success of Project Sputnik,
the effort that resulted in a prototype open-source laptop based on
Ubuntu 12.04 and Dell's XPS 13 hardware. Now entering the Beta phase,
interested parties are asked to sign up to participate. "We've been
blown away by the number of people who have wanted to be beta
participants," Barton George of Dell explains and goes on to say "if
this gets the traction I think it will, you can bet Dell will start
looking at others who would benefit from a similar solution."

== Launchpad News ==
=== Launchpad does not have private projects...yet. ===
Curtis Hovey writes about problems considering private projects and
Purple squad work progress on the Disclosure feature. Hovey states: "I
think the problem here is that Launchpad squads no longer use
Launchpad to plan and execute work. There is no place for any
interested party to see what the goals of Disclosure is and gauge how
we are progressing."
Hovey also presents a Disclosure draft report, where it is can be seen
what Purple squad is doing, has recently done, and will do next. The
Disclosure draft report is available at

DVR, and Pictures, as well as more technical notes about metadata and
removing Qt to make way for Nux.

=== Barneedhar: Test Quantal kernels on Precise ===
Testing Quantal kernels in 12.04 is a great way to help the kernel
team to provide better hardware support in the 12.04 release. The post
outlines the steps necessary to download, install, and test the newer
kernel versions. Any bugs should be reported in launchpad.

=== David Henningsson: Top five wrong ways to fix your audio ===
David Henningsson writes about five common, outdated ways people try
to fix issues with audio. Among the suggestions are not trying to
update ALSA, not purging PulseAudio, and not replacing ALSA with OSS.

== Canonical News ==
=== Changes to Contacts ===
The Ubuntu One team is announcing that they are removing the Facebook
contact import and sync feature in Ubuntu One. They cite turning off
old features reliant on the old infrastructure in favor of moving to a
new syncing infrastrcuture, U1DB. Users who have already added their
Facebook contacts will continue to have access to that information.

=== Canonical, the FSF and the Ongoing Secure Boot Saga ===
Linux Inside reports on the continuing back-and-forth between the Free
Software Foundation and Canonical over the proposed plan to overcome
issues with secure boot. Disagreements of licenses and a shift to an
alternate bootloader, as opposed to Grub 2, are among the top issues
discussed.
http://www.linuxinsider.com/story/75612.html
=== Must have missing features in Ubuntu ===
Datamation writes on missing features that new users to Ubuntu, or
Linux in general, are expecting when migrating over. One of the
features is system restore, which lets users move back to a known good
working installation of the operating system. Other missing features
include wide-spread inclusions of driver discs with new hardware from
the manufacturers, and the ability to easily install software without
an active Internet connection.

== In The Blogosphere ==
=== Thunderfork: Canonical's Chance To Expand Its Ecosystem With Thunderbird ===
Dean Howell, The PowerBase, writes about Canonical's innovations
around the GUI. When considering innovations, Howell gave the most
focus to Thunderbird and its future. Howell states:"Thunderbird
integration in Unity is a hack-job. Forking Thunderbird and bending it
to fit the will of Ubuntu makes sense. Forking the project and making
a version available for Android and iOS to gain adoption, increase
mind-share and raise the visibility of it's cloud services is simply
genius."

=== All About Ubuntu One ===
Hoo Ann, Ezine@rticles, posts about Ubuntu one features, and benefits
from its usage namely: storage, online backup, folder/file
synchronisation, availability and approachability from other operating
systems, and music streaming. Ann states: "Ubuntu One with 5GB of free
storage is better than Dropbox and equal to Sugarsync and Google
Drive."

=== There's no shortage of Asus Ubuntu netbooks in Italy ===
Joey Sneddon, OMG! Ubuntu!, posts about the shortage of ASUS netbooks,
preloaded with Ubuntu, in the UK. Discussing the shortage, Sneddon
mentions that in Italy it is a completely different situation. Since
Sneddon's source is in Italian, he presents some specs of the ASUS
netbooks to make it easier for ones who are not familiar with the
Italian language.

=== Preloaded Ubuntu laptops all set to compete against Windows ===
Vaibhav Panwar, REVTHATUP, posts about: Ubuntu's competition with
Windows, Canonical's partnership with Dell, entrance into new markets
like India and China, and advantages of Ubuntu.

India market. Bhartiya looks at the features and benefits that Ubuntu

points out possibilities for those considering installing Ubuntu.
