Hovey stated: ”There are inconsistencies in pages you might visit. Some parts might not work because Launchpad does not have a ‘proven way’ to solve a problem.” Hovey highly recommends that users should use interactive browsers since they provide information as needed, and best performance to complete the task. http://blog.launchpad.net/general/launchpad-for-textual-graphical-and-interactive-browsers == Ubuntu Cloud News == === Scaling a 2000-node Hadoop cluster on EC2/Ubuntu with Juju === Mark Mims and James Page share their scalability test framework on Hadoop using Juju Charms.

Holbach states: ”What we need most though is that if you can review code and upload changes you head over to the sponsoring queue and help reviewing.” http://daniel.holba.ch/blog/2012/06/you-can-help-code-review/ === Ubuntu App Developer Blog: Humble Indie Bundle: a few days later and Help Earn the Humble Indie Bundle More Money! === As announced last week, the Humble Indie Bundle 5 has arrived at the Ubuntu Software Center, and nearly 10000 downloads has been made in the first 72 hours.

Hall states: “Currently there is a support for apps using Python and Distutils, apps compiled by cmake and apps written in Vala. But there are still many, many applications out there that aren’t covered with these back-ends, including: Qt apps, HTML5 apps, Flash apps and more. That’s where you, dear contributor, come in.” http://mhall119.com/2012/06/contributing-to-ubuntu-a-better-pkgme/ === Thorsten Wilms: Switches in Unity menus === Thorsten Wilms shares plans considering switch widgets in Unity’s network status menu. He notes that enabling/disabling could be handled differently in style and placement of the widgets and that the adoption of “light-switch” style widgets in point and click interfaces is a mistake as they are often unclear about whether labels refer to the current state or the state to change to. http://thorwil.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/switches-in-unity-menus/ === Ubuntu Classroom: A few instructor spots left for Ubuntu User Days on June 23-24th 2012 === Elizabeth Krumbach of the Ubuntu Classroom team reminds the community that Ubuntu User Days will be held on June 23-24th 2012 and that there are still some available spots left for instructors.

Members of the team also attended an Ubuntu Women dinner in downtown San Franicisco that evening. http://blog.ubuntu-women.org/2012/06/ubuntu-women-at-uds-q/ === Accessibility Team: The Year of GNOME Accessibility === The Ubuntu Accessibility team shares news of a new campaign launched by upstream GNOME Accessibility for improvements "including performance improvements when the desktop accessibility APIs are turned on, enhancements to the readability of WebKitGTK+ and improvements to automatic regression testing which ties in nicely with the renewed emphasis on QA and automated testing in the Ubuntu project." They go on to share an easy way you can help by fixing some bugs the "a11y" tag, which was recently added harvest.ubuntu.com. == In The Press == === Ubuntu for smartphones may come next year === Ubuntu for smartphones might arrive as early as later this year or early next year, Computerworld says.
