Last week we hit Feature Freeze. This is the big date that all developer dread the most. Now features and new upstream versions have to have landed, everything else will be a matter the release team has to decide upon. We are rushing towards release with UI Freeze and Beta Freeze coming up next week. Exciting times!
Next week Alpha 3 of Ubuntu 11.10 will be released, so everybody is currently trying to get their latest updates in and everything tidied up for a release.
Loads of good stuff is happening in Ubuntu these days. You can get a good idea of it when you check out the oneiric-changes mailing list. Lots of these changes have been in the making for a bit longer, so expect the ground-breaking changes to happen in the next few weeks. If you're after the big picture overview: the status overview should give you a very detailed look on how each feature is progressing. It's two weeks until Alpha 3 is going to be released and 3 weeks until Feature Freeze, when the majority of the feature work should have landed. If you have updates you want to get into Ubuntu which shake things up, you better get a move on and do it now. Read on for the weekly rundown by Daniel Holbach.
Last week was Ubuntu Developer Week, one week full of tutorials, workshops and presentations with the intention of explaining better what's going on in the world of Ubuntu development, to ask, learn, get to know and enjoy. These weeks are always over much too quickly, but the good news is, 1) we have logs of all the sessions, their questions and answers (links below) and 2) there's going to be another one next cycle! This post got a bit longer, so grab a coffee, sit back and check out what happened last week. (Links go to the logs of the session in question.)

Get ready for Ubuntu Developer Week from Monday, 11th July to Friday, 15th July.
