Canonical CTO Matt Zimmerman Speaks

[ Thanks to Ken Hess for this link. ]

"My Frugal Tech Show co-host, Jason Perlow, and I spoke with Canonical CTO Matt Zimmerman early this morning about the upcoming Ubuntu releases and a few other selected topics of interest to Ubuntu users. There are some secret goings on in the mill at Canonical that he didn't tell us about but I can read between the lines.

"Jason and I quizzed Matt about all sorts of technical and non-technical aspects of the Ubuntu Linux distribution, upcoming releases, Mark Shuttleworth's vision and his position. But, it wasn't until I asked him specifically about the business end of one of Mark's blog entries, did he stop short of tossing out some breaking news about what they have up their sleeve.

"I asked him about a particular quote from Mark's blog: "We want to put Ubuntu and free software on every single consumer PC that ships from a major manufacturer, the ultimate maverick move."
