One of the agenda topics at our last meeting was a preview of the groups draft Mission Statement and Charter. Suggested modifications have been made and both of these are now available online for review. Please take a moment to look them over and make any suggestions. Keep in mind these are simply my thoughts put down on paper and they are not set in stone.
Part of next months meeting agenda is to vote on the acceptance of both of these documents into the group and then hold “Office Elections” so we can move forward in a structured way.

Canonical Ltd. has announced the availability today of UbuntuĀ® 8.10 Desktop Edition and Server Edition.
Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop Edition is designed for the pervasively connected digital lifestyle. With new 3G network support, users can move smoothly from wired and WiFi networks onto 3G cellphone networks while traveling. Ubuntu 8.10 is also built to be shared - users can start a quick “guest session” on the fly and let someone use their computer to surf the web or check email, while maintaining the security and integrity of their own data. And if that person really enjoys their brief session as an Ubuntu guest, they can put Ubuntu on any USB key and take it home to install on their own computer rather than having to burn a CD.
“Ubuntu 8.10 Server Edition is a terrific milestone that underlines the value in our twin track release strategy,” said Jane Silber, COO of Canonical. “The server edition embraces cloud computing, virtualisation, mail server enhancements, Java development and deployment as well as a range of services to help system admininstrators and developers. Our six-monthly release cycle allows us to get these features in front of users faster continuing to make Ubuntu the best option for innovative organisations.
Either of the 8.10 editions can be downloaded here
