Ubuntu News: Massive Downsizing and Searching for Funding
-
I think it is just shuttleworth-how-you-write-this who does not want to fund the company more. They are searching for fund raising in the private market.

Maybe that is all that it is. He's tired of it.

The timing of it all, screams bad business decisions were made, and are trying to be corrected. Just like any other business who is coming across hard times.
Let's not forget their mobile OS which was in the works for years and totally flopped.

The windows phone was a Rockstar in comparison.

It was called Ubuntu touch. It was started in 2011.

If i remember correctly, Ubuntu touch just got one low end hardware phone to host their OS at launch, and it was only available in Europe.

Yeah, and they wanted a lot of money for the phone too. (at least I thought it was a lot)

Yeah, something like the Ubuntu phone needed to be cheap or it just would not make sense, at least on initial release.

anyway I hate to say: I was right
