Article title: Industry News: Ubuntu8.04 (Beta) officially released. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Including desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, open source, and other basic categories. at two o'clock P.M., January 1, March 20 (Greenwich Mean Time), a message was published on the Ubuntu Wiki website, the Beta version of Ubuntu 8.04 is officially released as scheduled. The message said: "Ubuntu developers are making rapid progress, bringing you absolutely novel and great software contributed by the world's open-source community." Ubuntu 8.04 brings a lot of excellent new features ". This statement is not false.
　
Ubuntu 8.04 includes 19 new features, including Xorg 7.3, Linux kernel 2.6.24, GNOME 2.22, and FireFox 3 (Beta 4), Transmission, virtualization technology, firewall, memory protection, Wubi, and installation technology. In particular, Ubuntu 8.04 will include the new version of the Office suite OpenOffice.org 2.4 (which is currently in the final testing phase ).
　
The Ubuntu release is an "integration" of many free software packages. it is particularly worth noting that it retains the brand of these free software packages and is unambiguous, never let these "sub-brands" be eaten by Ubuntu's "big brands" (such as what "Made in China" and "Made in XX ). So far, the world's Ubuntu community has already registered more than 0.53 million people, which can be described as "talented people ". People are often puzzled. the "big community" of 0.53 million people is full of people, busy all day, and troublesome. what can we say about "rapid progress "? None. In February 28 this year, Mark Shuttleworth, the soul of the community, was invited to "talk" with Jim Zemlin, executive chairman of the Linux Foundation. he Explained many important ideas and deserves our reference and consideration. Mark Shuttleworth believes: "the business license business model of software is actually at the end of its lifecycle (" at the end of their cycle ")". "I have seen a new and thriving service-based ecosystem," he said. "From this, we think it is very interesting to build a pure service-oriented company ", "There is no other more powerful way to explain how we absolutely devote ourselves to service (career), and the platform is completely free of charge ". Mr. Shuttleworth's "glorious thought" (using the words we are familiar with) guides the healthy growth of the Ubuntu community in the world and makes such a great contribution to global humanity.
　
In fact, Ubuntu is a "world of building blocks" and all the materials are free software. Why can't we use them for reference? Our release version is so "a big one" that we cannot see any "sub-brand" and will surely go into a "dead end ". Free software (outcome) is never (and cannot) used in this way.
