In the last few weeks we’ve worked on: * Ubuntu 13.10 release: we’ve updated [www.ubuntu.com](http://www.ubuntu.com/) for the latest Ubuntu release * Updates to the new [Ubuntu OpenStack cloud](http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud) section: based on some really interesting feedback we got from [Tingting](http://design.canonical.com/author/tingtingzhao/)’s research, we’ve updated the new pages to make them easier to understand * Canonical website: [Carla](http://design.canonical.com/author/carlaberkers/) has conducted several workshops and interviews with stakeholders and has defined key audiences and user journeys * [Juju GUI](https://jujucharms.com/sidebar/): on-boarding is now ready to land in Juju soon * Fenchurch (our CMS): the demo services are fixed and our publishing speed has seen a 90% improvement! And we’re currently working on: * Responsive mobile pilot: we’ve been squashing the most annoying bugs and it’s now almost ready for the public alpha release! * Canonical.com: with some of the research for the project already completed, Carla will now be working on creating the site’s information architecture and wireframing its key sections * Juju GUI: [Alejandra](http://design.canonical.com/author/alejandra-obregon), [Luca](http://design.canonical.com/author/lucapaulina), [Spencer](http://design.canonical.com/author/spencerbygraves), [Peter](http://design.canonical.com/author/peter-mahnke) and [Anthony](http://design.canonical.com/author/ya-bo-ng) are in a week-long sprint in San Francisco for some intense Juju-related work (lucky them!) * [developer.ubuntu.com](http://developer.ubuntu.com/): we have been working with the Community team to update the site’s design to be more in line with [www.ubuntu.com](http://www.ubuntu.com/) and the first iteration will be going live soon * Fenchurch: we are now working on a new download service *Release day at the Canonical office* Have you got any questions or suggestions for us?
