Ubuntu Improvement Review

Ubuntu Report Card (2009)

One of best Ubuntu review I've ever read. It's not a review of any Ubuntu release but it reviews the whole development pace of Ubuntu between 8.04-9.04 (also 9.10 alpha). Quite interesting.

I agree with the author in almost every point (except the 'Performance' category since I upgraded my laptop so it's not scientific measurement).

The 'Appearance' score can't be more true. New desktop scheme has been proposed and postponed in every single release and it has never happened.

My final thought on appearance: whoever needs 'Help' on the panel? Removing it is the first thing I've done after installation.
