    Joint Statement from the UCC and KC
    The Ubuntu Community Council (UCC) and Kubuntu Council (KC) have issued
    a joint statement
    regarding the conflict between Jonathan Riddell and
    the UCC. "We have mutually agreed that KDE is important to Ubuntu, and the Kubuntu
    Council believes that Ubuntu is important to the KDE community as well.
    Therefore we have a basis to work together on putting out a lovely Wily
    release. We recognize that there are honest and strong feelings about
    both the things that led up to the current controversy and the way that
    resolution of it was handled. Despite that, we would all like to move
    forward as best we can for the betterment of the Ubuntu project,
    including Kubuntu.
    " LWN covered the
    controversy in late May.

    Ardour 4.1 released
    Version 4.1 of the Ardour digital audio workstation software has been released. There are some new features in the release including input gain control, support for capture-only and playback-only devices, a real "Save As" option (with the old option being renamed to "Snapshot (& switch to new version)"), and allowing plugins to be reordered and meter positions to change without adding a click into the audio. There are also lots of user interface changes, including better High-DPI support. "This release contains several new features, both internally and in the user interface, and a slew of bug fixes worthy of your attention. Encouragingly, we also have one of our longest ever contributor lists for this release.

    We had hoped to be on a roughly monthly release cycle after the release of 4.0, but collaborations with other organizations delayed 4.1 by nearly a month.
    "
