Summary: Alan Pope, Mark Johnson, Tony Whitmore, Laura Cowen, and podcats are drinking mulled wine and eating mince pies with homemade brandy butter in Studio A for the twenty-second and final episode of Season Five of the Ubuntu Podcast from the UK LoCo Team! In this week’s show:- We recall our predictions for 2012 and decide whether we were right or wrong. We foolishly then decide to make some predictions for 2013. And we perform the Annual UUPC Christmas Play! We also chat about reading a book, getting a new laptop that hasn’t yet been installed with Ubuntu (but will be), waiting for a Nexus 4, and switching off adblock. In the news this week:- Version 1.0 of open source file-sharing Sparkleshare released… Crowd-sourced project to make an indie film about the rise of FOSS… Open laptop project… The Pi Store is launched… Vulnerability in some Samsung devices running Android… We play a preview of a forthcoming documentary about Tomorrow’s Technology Today. Thanks to Victoria Pritchard and Robin Catling – and, of course, the Herbert Maxwell Fosdyke Curmudgeon Memorial Sound Archive. We chat about some Ubuntu related news in the bit-about-Ubuntu:- Launchpad users can now request ARM builds of their software… Online galleries available for Ubuntu One users… Ubuntu Advocacy Developer Kit available from a PPA… Restarting the Ubuntu Learning Project… Arguments over the Amazon shopping search in Ubuntu… And in Not-about-Ubuntu: Future versions of Linux will no longer support i386… And we have your feedback (including, finally, two – yes two! – voicemails from listeners).
