Welcome to the Burning Circle. For release on Wednesday, March 6th,
this is episode 104.This has been an exciting week full of announcements and thought to

As a community we need to keep testing the development release. We
need to celebrate wins and strengthen software when we can. We need
to help increase the number of officially recognized Ubuntu Members
and Kubuntu Members within our state so that we know we have a solid
core to help our team grow. Raring Ringtail enters the Feature
Freeze stage of the cycle Thursday so we can look ahead to
celebrating release in April perhaps.Sometimes a radical proposal needs some softening and leavening.
This virtual Ubuntu Developer Summit was an attempt at that. Go back
and watch the videos. If you want to see me leading a virtual
session at this summit, look for “Consider General Contingencies for
Xubuntu” on YouTube, which Producer Gloria wound up helping me with.
