I have already talked about this Ubuntu-based recovery Live CD formerly known as Rescubuntu.
az has released a new version based on Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty Gibbon. Please check the UF thread and their web site for more informations and download links.

For example (What? Are you saying I am biased?):
Very nice work!

Share your gutsy install/upgrade experience.
Ubuntuforums are the official support forums for Ubuntu. Many users seek support or help with their Ubuntu system, but not only. The chat areas are also very active. However, when it comes down to the OS, most of the threads are to solve issues, fix things, get encouragements, basically get community help.
As the community grows the forums can fulfill another need: have users come over to get feedback, and if possible, positive feedback.
Frodon has started a thread where you can also share your positive experiences regarding the recent install/upgrade to gutsy, the latest Ubuntu release.
As zasf points it out:
“I’m going to upgrade right now. I wanted to have a look at the forums in order to know some other’s experience before doing it.”
So please, contribute to the thread, answer to the poll, so that your own experience can allow to draw a broader picture of the overall transition to gutsy.

Ubuntuforums updates
-
The Gutsy Development Forum will be closed and moved to the Archives for browsing. Please now post in the general areas for gutsy support, and report a thread from the Gutsy forum if you would like to have it moved out of the Archives.
The Hardy Development Forum, already set up, will open soon. - You can now select threads you wish to ignore. This has been requested some time ago and comes as an additional feature to ignoring a whole forum.

Bug statuses in Launchpad.
I have been following the discussions on ubuntu-devel, -devel-discuss and -launchpad-users mailing lists regarding the status of Ubuntu bugs. There are many different discussion threads, some of them cross-posted, so it is a little difficult to give all the links (and I may forget one, which I do not want to do).
One particular bug I followed was marked “expired” and I realized I did not understand the different statuses in Launchpad.
Matthew Revell has posted a summary of what happened to all the incomplete bugs earlier last month, and most important, an updated documentation will be available and easier to find for basic contributors such as me.
For now, you can check the Launchpad blog post, which I had not been talking about so far, I was waiting for more infos on the mailing-lists.
Many thanks for all this work!

The Frigde: 10 Gutsy Gibbon features in 10 days.
Part of the fever spreading out for Gutsy release in 8 days now, The Fridge has started another countdown.
For the next few days until October 18th, new features will be highlighted. I knew of tracker, the first to get attention, but had never actually tested it. The very well written Fridge article was the one deciding me for a test, and now I am using it with deskbar. Bullet Proof X is the one for today, nice addition too. So I’ be collecting the links to post them here, all in one place, just for me. May be you’ll find this collection handy too ;)
