Kubuntu

Two weeks ago was the release of the latest and greatest Kubuntu.

Kubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet brought to the market one very important and very significant change: It’s among the first distros to ship with Plasma 5 and the new KDE Frameworks 5.

In celebration of this, together with Aaron Honeycutt, Rick Timmis and of course Jonathan Riddell, I held a presentation of our new Kubuntu at the Ubuntu Online Summit 2015.

Out of the need to motivate us and start working hard came the opportunity for me to organize a Kubuntu Sprint to work on the new Kubuntu site.

The main problem: Decide whether to use a WordPress  theme made by an intern or pick one from the WordPress Library.

First of all, a big thank you to the Ubuntu Community for sponsoring me to be there.

I first arrived in Brussels on Friday, at around noon, and took a good nap to rest from my exaggerated long trip (~11 hours): Minivan -> Plane -> Bus -> Tram -> Foot.

It’s almost time to leave and I can’t wait to see my friends from the OpenSource world again and for my first experience at FOSDEM.

I’ve gotten my luggage ready and I’m (almost) ready to leave.

An awesome BSP just took place in München where teams from Kubuntu, Kolab, KDE PIM, Debian and LibreOffice came and planned the future and fixed bugs.

This is my second year participating at this BSP and I must say it was an awesome experience. I got to see again my colleagues from Kubuntu and got to meet new people with whom I hope to collaborate in the future.

Cu sprijinul comunității Kubuntu și Kubuntu România am reușit să lansăm site-ul Kubuntu România.

Site-ul are scopul de a oferi vizitatorilor atât știri și noutăți din lumea Kubuntu și KDE cât și suport și ajutor pentru cei ce nu prea se descurcă cu Kubuntu.

Oricine dorește să contribuie cu orice, articole, tutoriale, idei sau chiar rezolvări de probleme este încurajat să o facă și va avea parte de sprijinul comunității.
