Annunciato il rilascio della versione alpha di Ubuntu 15.10
The first alpha of the Wily Werewolf (to become 15.10) has now been released!
This alpha features images for Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, UbuntuKylin and the Ubuntu Cloud images. Pre-releases of the Wily Werewolf are not encouraged for anyone needing a stable system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for Ubuntu flavor developers and those who want to help in testing, reporting and fixing bugs as we work towards getting this release ready.
Alpha 1 includes a number of software updates that are ready for wider testing. This is quite an early set of images, so you should expect some bugs.

Annunciato il rilascio della nuova versione di Zorin OS, distribuzione Linux basata da Ubuntu.
The Zorin OS Team are proud to release the Zorin OS 6 Core and Ultimate, the latest version of our operating system designed for Windows users and those who are dissatisfied with the Unity and Gnome Shell offerings. At the core of Zorin OS 6 lies our new, unique desktop environment named "Zorin Desktop". We also include our innovative Zorin Look Changer which allows users to choose between the Windows 7, Windows XP and GNOME 2 graphical interfaces (in Core) as well as the Mac OS X, Unity and Windows 2000 interfaces in Zorin OS Ultimate. Zorin Desktop embraces all of the latest and greatest Open Source software and technologies such as Gtk3 and other software from the GNOME 3 software stack, all without affecting the familiarity, usability and customizability of the desktop and retaining the Compiz window manager. Along with the new desktop environment, Zorin OS 6 packs a ton of software updates: a newly redesigned Software Center, Linux Kernel version 3.2 and a load of other improvements and features. We also include our Zorin Web Browser Manager, Zorin Background Plus (Ultimate only) and other programs from our earlier versions. As Zorin OS 6 is based on Ubuntu 12.04 it is an LTS (Long Term Support) release, provided with 5 years of security updates.

- 3D Support: several fixes for the Windows WDDM video driver crash
- NAT: fixed a crash on attempt to process ICMP datagram under some circumstances (bug #10527)

- EFI: fixed wrong SEC/PEI Core entry point calculation (bug #10531)
- VRDP: fixed a display update problem (bug #10503)

Zorin Desktop uses AWN as the default panel to allow for unparalleled customizability and support for our different looks in the Zorin Look Changer.

Alcuni test effettuati a marzo 2012 da AV-Test hanno messo in evidenza come numerosi anti-virus per Android non sono particolarmente affidabili. Sono stati testati 41 diversi anti-virus, quasi due terzi di questi anti-virus hanno identificato meno del 65% dei 618 malware utilizzati come test. Solo 7 antivirus sono riusciti a individuare il 95% o più dei malware utilizzati per i test. Gli anti-virus prodotti dalle maggiori società produttrici di software antivirus come Avast, Dr. Web, F-Secure, Ikarus e Kaspersky hanno ottenuto i risultati migliori. Insieme a loro nei primi 7 antivirus quelli sviluppati da Lookout e Zoner.
Altri antivirus, come quelli prodotti da AVG, Bitdefender, ESET, Norton/Symantec, QuickHeal, Trend Micro, VIPRE/GFI e Webroot sono riusciti ad individuare tra il 65% ed il 90% dei malware utilizzati per il test.
Il report dettagliato dei test svolti è disponibile, in formato pdf, a questo indirizzo.
L'ultimo report rilasciato da Coverity, Coverity Scan Open Source Integrity Report, relativo al 2011 indica che la qualità del codice open source è pari o superiore alla qualità del software proprietario. Nello studio, frutto di una collaborazione tra Coverity e lo US Department of Homeland Security nata nel 2006, sono stati analizzati oltre 37 milioni di linee di codice open source e oltre 300 milioni di linee di codice dei software proprietari.
I 45 software open source analizzati hanno una media di 832.000 linee di codice, e la densità media di difetto (numero di difetti per 1000 righe di codice) è di 0.45. I 41 software proprietari analizzati hanno una media di 7.5 milioni di linee di codice, e una densità media di difetto di 0.64.
Linux 2.6, PHP 5.3, e PostgreSQL 9.1 sono stati riconosciuti come i progetti open source con una qualità del codice maggiore, rispettivamente con densità di difetto 0.62, 0.20, e 0.21.
"Open source code quality is on par with proprietary code quality, particularly in cases where codebases are of similar size. For instance, Linux 2.6, a project with nearly 7 million lines of code, has a defect density of 0.62 which is roughly identical to that of its proprietary codebase counterparts"
