Attention Mark Shuttleworth: Don’t forget most important feature for Ubuntu 11.04

“In one of my most recent “10 Things…” articles, I spoke
about what I would like to see come about in Ubuntu 11.04. This
came in the wake of the recently released 10.10 and the high praise
it will certainly garner. My wishes for 11.04 were (in some cases)
a bit lofty or (in other cases) quite understandable.

“One “feature” that I intentionally left out of that mix is
something I want to address now. This “feature” is one that I have
gone on and on about over the last decade or so and begs my
attention once again. That “feature” is marketing. Let me
explain.

“With Ubuntu 10.10 the world is getting one of the most
flexible, versatile, stable, and down-right enjoyable operating
systems to date. Ubuntu 10.10 improved on what 10.04 brought to us
and even added a few new features. And, to put it bluntly, the
release is fantastic.”
