Bigbro's foray into the scary world of blogging
Jono Bacon travelled to Limerick to deny any and all rumours regarding his preferences for aquatic marine fowl - though he felt the nice picture of Alan Cox with a lake full of ducks in the background added something to his presentation.

Community, Governence (Be excellent to one and other) and localisation are the keys to making Ubuntu the successful distribution it is today. With over 8 million users, applications getting better and better all the time and a very successful and still growing community, Ubuntu is going from strength to strength.
As an example of the translation and localisation effort, Jono cited Jokosher being added to Rosetta (the Ubuntu translation tool) and being available several weeks later in 12 languages.
