After the new X-based graphical boot splash introduced a couple of days ago, Canonical unveiled today what it was only a mockup a few months ago, the Ubuntu Software Store (previously known as Ubuntu AppCenter), a piece of software that would unify all the existing package managers in the Ubuntu operating system. At the moment, the Ubuntu Software Store is not installed by default in the current development release of the upcoming Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) distribution, but it can be easily installed by searching "software-store" in Synaptic.
The goal of the new Ubuntu Software Store application is to replace many system-administration programs, such as Synaptic Package Manager, Add/Remove, GDebi, Computer Janitor and even the popular Update Manager tool, in order to offer to both the new and experienced Ubuntu users an easier and more intuitive way to search, install, update or remove applications.
However, even if the Ubuntu Software Store will be available in Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala), it will NOT replace the aforementioned applications, as the users are still used to them and because the Ubuntu Software Store is still in development! Below, you can see a screenshot tour of Ubuntu Software Store, showing menu entries, navigation, search capabilities, and more...
"sudo apt-get install software-store" on karmic only

Wine is a translation layer (a program loader) capable of running Windows applications on linux and other POSIX compatible operating systems. Windows programs running in Wine act as native programs would, running without the performance or memory usage penalties of an emulator, with a similar look and feel to other applications on your desktop.
The Wine project started in 1993 as a way to support running Windows 3.1 programs on linux. Bob Amstadt was the original coordinator, but turned it over fairly early on to Alexandre Julliard, who has run it ever since. Over the years, ports for other Unixes have been added, along with support for Win32 as Win32 applications became popular.
Wine is still under development, and it is not yet suitable for general use. Nevertheless, many people find it useful in running a growing number of Windows programs

Anumaan is a perspective based, On-Screen predictive text entry system.
Anumaan is an extension of an Input Method (IM) mechanism (on GNOME desktop) in the sense that it extends its (IM) notion by including the power of text prediction. It has support for UTF-8 unicode encoding.
Anumaan allows its user to train it and personalize his writing style into different named domains. Hence it adapts to your writing style in some sense. The current version will not have live mode adaptation but still you can train a domain as many times you like.
Anumaan is designed for a (text) sequence prediction based on a certain Context.The Context can either be a partial word context or a partial sentence context.
Anumaan is especially designed for people who suffer from different kinds of motor disability by allowing it be customized for differnt kinds of Input devices (e.g. keyboard, mouse, Joystick or any other pointing device especially built for people suffering from Motor disability). In other words it can be very easily customized to cater to different hand movement capabilities. The current version is only for mouse and keyboard based interactions. But we can easily customize it for different hardware input device requirements.

Canonical announces support for Moblin v2
Ubuntu(R) sponsor confirms intention to deliver an Ubuntu Moblin remix
Computex, Taipei, June 2, 2009 Today, Canonical announced support of Moblin, an optimized open source linux software stack and application framework, by committing to the development of a product based on the recently released Moblin v2 for Intel® Atom™ processor-based platforms. Moblin v2 provides the core infrastructure, applications and user experience that Canonical will integrate into an Ubuntu-based product.
Moblin v2, which is currently available in beta for netbooks, is the latest from Moblin.org, an open source community that supports the creation and distribution of linux-based operating system products for Intel Atom-based platforms, including netbooks, mobile Internet devices (MIDs), nettops, in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) and embedded systems. One of the key new features of Moblin v2 is an easy-to-use and intuitive user interface that was built for advanced Internet, media and social networking experiences.
We are very excited about bringing a Moblin v2-based product to market in the near future, said Mark Shuttleworth, founder of the Ubuntu project. Intels Atom processor along with the linux Foundation bring fantastic energy and excitement to OEMs looking to deliver linux-based experiences for users through Moblin. Adding it as an option alongside Ubuntu, and eventually sharing elements between the two, means even more rapid innovation on open platforms which will benefit developers, manufacturers and, most importantly, users.
Intel launched Moblin in June 2007 and incubated the project until April 2009 when the linux Foundation became the host of the community. Intel continues to contribute key technologies and work with the developer community to advance the effort.
Canonicals announcement of a Moblin-based Ubuntu product is very significant for the Intel Atom processor-based netbook market, said Doug Fisher, vice president of Intels Software and Services Group and general manager of the System Software Division. Offering a Moblin v2 based version of Ubuntu will enable Canonical and OEMs to deliver a compelling and rich user experience on Intel Atom processor-based systems.
Moblin v2 for netbooks is available for download at www.moblin.org.
