Hello fellow Ubuntu users and hello to Ubuntu developers!
I just wanted to let you know that a major national newspaper in Canada, the Globe and Mail, has published a great formal first look for Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala. :)
I very occasionally contact them about random things, this is probably my second or third e-mail to them.
The last e-mail I sent to Mr. Snider of Globe and Mail and it was about the new release of Ubuntu, 9.10!
I wanted to e-mail them about this one since 1. I use Ubuntu so I have my own interest in it and 2. I think the impression and reality as well is still that Ubuntu is the best first experience for any one wanting to introduce themselves to Linux.
So what I asked in the mail was this:
Hi Mr. Snider, (Mr. M Snider is Editor of Globe and Mail Technology)
Please do a review of Ubuntu 9.10! Even if only for the awesome new name, Karmic Koala (just joking, but the name is hilarious :P)!
It would seem nice to fit in with the reviews of the newly released Windows 7.
From what I have heard and read, Ubuntu 9.10 is a strong milestone that shows off what the open source communities are capable of.
I have been using Ubuntu for a while now and I am really excited to upgrade.
I hope the Globe Tech team will try it out and present a review for the completely FREE OS! http://forums.e-mpire.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
Cheers, I won't post his response just considering if he might not appreciate it.
What he basically said is that he will find out if it can be accomodated, and he contacted Mrs. L Griener who did the Windows package...
And voila!
Here is a mainstream published first look at Ubuntu 9.10, Karmic Koala, from a recognized newspaper nationally http://forums.e-mpire.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

So congratulations to the Ubuntu team for getting a first look in a popular and mainstream national publication http://forums.e-mpire.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
A big thank you goes to Mr. Mike Snider and especially Mrs. Lynn Greiner for creating the article :)
And a big thank you to the developers and community of Ubuntu for working on and allowing this fantastic open source material to continue!
