Announcements
Brief items
The H has announced
its closure. " Although The H has produced many widely
read stories, it has not been possible to effectively monetise that traffic
to produce a working business model." Here at LWN we understand
that problem well. The H has indeed produced a lot of quality content
over the years; we are genuinely sad to see it go.

Reglue, the non-profit organization behind the HeliOS Project that provides Linux PCs to Texas schoolchildren, has announced a fundraising drive. Although HeliOS has always been donation-driven, the project is hoping to make up for the funding lost over the past year as founder Ken Starks was unable to work while undergoing treatment for cancer.

Articles of interest
Jono Bacon announces
that Canonical will be building and shipping a "fully converged" device
called the "Ubuntu Edge" — all funded by a $32 million Indiegogo
campaign. " The Ubuntu Edge will dual boot Ubuntu and Android, and
will transform into a PC when docked with a monitor, with the full Ubuntu
desktop and shared access to all the phone’s files. For this it needs the
power of a PC, so Ubuntu Edge will be equipped with the latest, fastest
processor, at least 4GB of RAM and a massive 128GB of storage."
