Ubuntu / Linux news and application reviews.

The 100 paper cuts project which was introduced for Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala will return for the next Ubuntu version: Lucid Lynx LTS 10.04. The 100 paper cuts project addresses small usability bugs in Ubuntu that are annoying for the users and should be really easy to fix but have never been addresses exactly because they are considered to be minor.

We have made a post exactly with such fixes and tweaks for Ubuntu Karmic. Hopefully, some of those will be taken care of in the 100 paper cuts project.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) will have ten rounds to fix 100 (or more) paper cuts in time for the Lucid Lynx before it is released in April. Three of the ten rounds are focused on addressing the outstanding paper cuts from Ubuntu 9.10. Many of the paper cuts for the later rounds of bug fixing though have yet to be singled out.

The 100 paper cuts page for Ubuntu Lucid Lynx can be found HERE.
