We're a little late, but Real Life got in the way, so here we finally are. Canonical, the commercial sponsor of Ubuntu, announced today that Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop Edition has been released. This version focusses on improvements in cloud computing on the server using Eucalyptus, further improvements in boot speed, as well as development on Netbook Remix. The related KDE, Xfce, and other variants have been released as well. Update by ELQ: Just a quick note to say that one of my Creative Commons videos was selected to be part of Ubuntu's Free Culture Showcase package that comes by default with the new Ubuntu version!

PulseAudio is NOT a Fedora Project.
*Sigh*
I'm thinking about all the times that Fedora advocates have claimed Pulseaudio as a Fedora project here on OSNews. But it is certainly interesting to see you backing away from it as fast as you can, now that it's a registered hot potato.

PulseAudio is a awesome project and I would very glad to tell anyone that Red Hat is sponsoring the development. It is getting greater adoption by a wide variety of projects all the time but I would not tell anyone that it is a Fedora project because it is not true.
Feel free to continue engaging in this repeated handwaving about mystical Fedora advocates without a single reference. I think you are just trolling and cannot trust your claims at face value anymore.

I have told you this many times but I will tell you one more time just in case you haven't understood it yet. Stop blaming Fedora for what Ubuntu includes by default! PulseAudio is NOT a Fedora Project. It is included by every major distribution. It is working very well for the large majority of users and getting increasing adoption all the time. This is the reality.
PulseAudio exposes more features and has exploited certain ALSA API's never used before. This has resulted in various ALSA bugs getting exposed for the first time and fixed. So many of the issues which seem superficially as PulseAudio bugs are often not. This is similar to how adoption of NetworkManager resulted in various wireless drivers getting fixed.
If you don't like anything about individual upstream projects, engage in constructive criticism. Calling free software projects cancer or poisonous is pointless trolling. It is just disappointing to see that.
