Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) reaches End-of-Life on October 19th, 2008
18 months of security updates and critical fixes will be over
Upgrade path to 7.10 (Gutsy) is available on the wiki - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades
Ubuntu specifically blamed for bricking network cards
2.6.27-rc kernel is going into many of the upcoming distro releases
bricks Intel e1000e network cards by overwriting the flash RAM where things like MAC addresses are stored
Its a kernel issue, not an Ubuntu issue!
Ubuntu Intrepid beta has blacklisted the module so it does not get loaded anymore
But sites like Engadget and DownloadSquad post headlines like "Ubuntu alpha breaks hardware"
Guess Ubuntu has to take the good with the bad in terms of popularity.

10 to 20 minute survey

Firefox WAS going require EULA to use it starting in Intrepid
Some people are saying you can still use FF without agreeing to it, which makes no sense
But if that behavior is changed, then there might not be a browser in the default install
Use iceWeasel instead like Debian, which is basically FF without the logos
Mozilla wants to protect their trademark (just like Ubuntu wants to), which is fine, but this is retarded
EULAs also not legal in some countries
Fedora had worked out some license thing too as well I think
But it was eventually Ubuntu users raising hell that got Mozilla to change it.

Greg Kroah-Hartman, a Novell kernel hacker complains about Canonical contributions
http://www.kroah.com/log/linux/lpc_2008_keynote.html
Matt Zimmerman, CTO for Canonical responds.
Points out Greg only considers kernel, X, and compiler contributions, not Gnome, KDE, or anything else.
Greg even gets his numbers wrong since it doesn't consider the right email addressses
Dustin Kirkland, who also works for Canonical, points out some interesting numbers :
comparing number of years in existence, # of employees, revenues, Canonical is young and small
points out that many Fedora and openSUSE users search Ubuntu resources for help because they are more comprehensive and informative.

I had no idea that you all were doing a podcast. I have been really slack in the community as of late. Work fried the brain a few weeks back and I have not really recovered yet.
Good job on the cast though. I really need to make it out to another meeting soon.
[...] Ubuntu Podcast episode #8 is out! Check it out. [...]
Hey Guys I thoroughly enjoyed participating in the event.
I look forward to the next one
