    The length of your software support window has considerable implications. Its a sizable investment to provide 10 years of maintenance. Its also a guarantee of quality and security for your customers.

    [06:44] schestowitz

    To help you achieve this and help you focus on maintaining your code, we developed Ubuntu Core. Each release of Ubuntu Core is supported for 10 years! Ubuntu Core is part of those 2300 debs from Main and for 10 years you dont have to worry about maintaining components like the kernel, systemd, ssh, libc6, libssl and more!

    Engineering transformation through documentation
    [06:47] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-Engineering transformation through documentation | Ubuntu [06:47] schestowitz
    [06:47] schestowitz

    To help bring our ambitious documentation plans to fruition, were going to be hiring people to work in documentation over the next couple of years, well be increasing the number of Technical Authors at Canonical four-fold.

    [06:47] schestowitz

    This isnt about documentation alone. If documentation is part of a product, and documentation work is part of engineering, then it has implications for engineering too.
