This Sunday, I have done quite a many things in relation to the Ubuntu Forums Unanswered Posts Team, the team I colead. The two biggest ones are:
The addition of a official Twitter feed with associated bot placed in the IRC chat. All UA members and others interested are suggested to follow @uateam and/or subscribe to the RSS feed provided by Twitter
The addition of a official team news blog at http://ua.codechunk.net/blog . All UA members are requested to subscribe to the RSS feed at the bottom of the page or, if your RSS reader does not like the method the software uses to publish feeds, you can subscribe to the Feedburner feed at http://feeds.feedburner.com/UbuntuForumsUnansweredPostsTeamNews . All further news on the team is to be published there. Keep in mind that the news blog is on my home server so, if it gets taken out, so will the feed. The Feedburner feed will remain, though.
That should be all for now. For those subscribed to the Launchpad Team mailing list, you will be getting a post in your email inboxes sometime later tonight.
Hoping that his home server does not crash,
Collin Pruitt
EDIT: Upon further reflection, I moved the team blog to http://ua.codechunk.net/blog . Thanks for the hosting, Jacob!

For the last week the Ubuntu community has been holding the Ubuntu Developer Summit for Lucid Lynx in Dallas, Texas. Sadly, with school and all, I could not attend, although I very much wanted to.
For those of you that did attend, did you enjoy it? Did you learn anything new there? What was your favorite part of it?
Post in a comment below.
Typing possibly the shortest blog post ever,

I would just like to take this time to notify the readers of this blog about the usefulness of using the Bittorent download option for downloading releases. Not only is it more reliable, it also takes a tremendous load off the main archive servers. When release day hits, the torrent files for Karmic can be found in the directory listing at http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/
Remember to seed back!
