Ubuntu Phone First Impressions
Regarding development of apps for the Ubuntu Phone, I found one particular link : http://www.ubuntu.com/phone/developers
My first non-technical impressions on the phone : • I like the overall clarity of the menus and the navigation inside the phone. • I really miss some notifications: it should be clearer without having to go to the notifications menu (scope?). • I think the security aspect, and private life respect from the apps is clearly what seems to make this OS different from android and IOS. • I think ubuntu should write ubuntu store and the translation. In French, when I read magasin ubuntu, I was a little scared to find myself in a shop. • Big problems with GPS.
One of my daughters who played with the phone says : • The whole organization of the menus and the OS is really different from her android. She appreciates this aspect, especially the left menu and the fact there is no physical button. • She would like to have more apps in the phone (in fact in the store).
My son enjoys the few games I installed for him. In fact, he loves this phone, the slidings from left to right, from right to left. He already knows how to use it, really faster than my Android phone (an HTC One X+)

TexStudio
In FCM#95, I read your article about LaTeX. However, please accept my suggestion of talking about (or at least referencing) TexStudio (http://texstudio.sourceforge.net/) as a good LaTeX editor.
I am a regular user of LaTeX, and TexStudio was the best editor I ever found, with the great advantage of running in Windows, Mac, and Linux! I am surprised you did not reference it.

What A Pig!
Regarding FCM95: On an old Medion Laptop AD 2003 with a P4 CPU and only 256MB RAM (later upgraded to 512MB which was a pig of a job having to strip part of the machine to get access to RAM), I was initially happy at using a USB WiFi stick with an Atheros chip. Since other WiFi sticks, made by Netgear and Linksys, and probably with a Broadcom chip, refused to work with Linux.
However since the release of (K)(L)Ubuntu 14.04, all the above WiFi USB sticks work in Linux without any configuration. It should mean that the Broadcom drivers are now included in the Linux kernel.
