We busted out our web soapbox earlier this week and detailed five features we want to see in Ubuntu. The Linux distribution’s community manager, Jono Bacon, wrote a thoughtful, informative response, which details and links what’s being done on a few of the fronts we considered crucial. Bacon explains and shows a screenshot of what’s happening with the Ubuntu Software Store (not pictured above, mind you), notes Ubuntu backer Canonical’s efforts in the design field, and writes that cloud-based backup, particularly Ubuntu One, is going to see “new and exciting development” in the next six months. He also points to some video editors “on the horizon,” which are promising, if still not quite average-user-friendly yet.

Update: Jono’s blog appears to have taken a hit from our link (sorry, Jono!), but Linux.com has a mirror post with the full text, and Google has it cached. Thanks for the links, SunitPolecat and Helen McGee!
