		<title>Ubuntu all grown up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
When I started using Ubuntu back in Gutsy(7.10) we looked like this. 

And now we look like this. 

We are getting a nice new logo too and our own font (in 10.10 for the font) so we are quickly becoming hugely competitive. On looks and hardware support alone we are up there with Apple and [...]]]></description>

		<title>The new Ubuntu look</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
One word&#8230;.awesome. I think out of the two desktop looks they put up, my desktop is going to be the white one. I like the orange/purple/white colours a lot more than brown/orange/grey. I think the sound and networking icons look a little Mac ish but still I like it. I just hope that the icon [...]]]></description>

		<title>Do the language that you like</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I was looking at some of the comments on Seif&#8217;s blog post and I thought that something needs to be addressed. 
1. C is an awesome language and its very very fast but its not the easiest to learn.
2. Python and Ruby are easy to learn but not fast. 
Some people suggested moving all the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Archive cruft</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I was on #ubuntu-motu today and a person asked if there was a policy for removing programs from the archive. They wanted to know if we could remove a program that hasnt had a release in years and the functionality is included in other programs so its completely superseded. This got me thinking maybe we [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lucid new icons :)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I love the new icons but one thing struck me. Have a look at this picture

Everything else monochrome and nice but the map blue and the clock purple and the house red. Great icons though

		<description><![CDATA[
In Ireland we have a special relationship with software we see the goodness but politicians dont have a clue how to make sure they get delivery on the sanctioned software systems. There have been a few systems an e-voting system and PPARS(its a payroll system for the medical service) both cost a half a billion [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPad and the FSF</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Oh FSF why do you make me embarrassed? Really I saw the article on ars about them protesting and I just said to myself &#8220;they have protested yourselves into obsolescence&#8221;. The flaw is they are protesting for something free and extremely positive but how they go about it is the opposite.
Do apple care its non [...]]]></description>
