When Canonical founder Mark Shuttleworth began shipping Ubuntu nine years ago, he created "Bug #1." Its title was "Microsoft has a majority market share," and Shuttleworth said "[t]his is a bug which Ubuntu and other projects are meant to fix."
Today, Shuttleworth has declared the bug "closed," but the bug wasn't fixed as a result of Ubuntu's popularity. It was fixed by the rise of iOS and Android. As for Ubuntu, Shuttleworth now says, "it's better for us to focus our intent on excellence in our own right rather than our impact on someone else's product."
Shuttleworth wrote:
Personal computing today is a broader proposition than it was in 2004: phones, tablets, wearables, and other devices are all part of the mix for our digital lives. From a competitive perspective, that broader market has healthy competition with iOS and Android representing a meaningful share.
Android may not be my or your first choice of Linux, but it is without doubt an open source platform that offers both practical and economic benefits to users and industry. So we have both competition, and good representation for open source, in personal computing.
Even though we have only played a small part in that shift, I think it's important for us to recognize that the shift has taken place. So from Ubuntu's perspective, this bug is now closed.
It's no surprise to see one of the world's most prominent open source advocates talk glowingly of Android gaining on Windows in overall device usage. It is perhaps a bit more startling to see Shuttleworth speak of iOS as being a fix for Windows' market dominance, however. After all, iOS is a more closed platform than Windows. Canonical, meanwhile, is still falling short of the elusive goal of making more money than it spends.
Free software activist Bradley Kuhn wrote that "I'm not against the closing of this bug; however, the closed status should be something like 'Can't Fix.'" (The actual status is "fix released.") Kuhn went on to note that the original bug report stated that "[a] majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software," and that even Android devices tend to include proprietary software.
Shuttleworth declaring Bug #1 closed comes as Canonical moves into new areas beyond the desktop. The company is adapting Ubuntu to phones and tablets, and it has steadily built a respectable business offering server software and now cloud infrastructure software based on the open source OpenStack.
"It's worth noting that today, if you're into cloud computing, the Microsoft IaaS [infrastructure-as-a-service] team are both technically excellent and very focused on having ALL OS's including Linux guests like Ubuntu run extremely well on [Windows] Azure, making them a pleasure to work with," Shuttleworth also wrote in today's bug fix.
Which bug will Canonical tackle next? We suggest fixing Bug #461000: "General populace ignorance of Ubuntu."

NBC Universal Real Housewives of Atlanta's NeNe Leakes recently had an "I do" redo and married her ex-husband Gregg Leakes for the second time, and now Bravo is taking you inside the road to her fairytale wedding!
We can exclusively reveal that Bravo will premiere the Real Housewives spinoff I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding on Tuesday, Sept. 17 at 9 p.m. And we also have the first look photo at the adorable couple dancing at their big wedding that took place on June 22 in Atlanta. Each episode will follow NeNe as she plans the wedding of her dreams. NeNe's bridal party will also be featured in the series, including Cynthia Bailey and Marlo Hampton.
The couple, who originally married back in 1997, were seperated for two years before getting re-engaged in December of 2012. Their son Brentt Leakes told E! News after the wedding: "I'm so happy to see my parents remarried, as a family we've never been happier."

Immediately following the premiere of I Dream of NeNe on Sept. 17 is the debut episode of Bravo's new docu-series The New Atlanta at 10 p.m. The series will follow the next generation of Atlanta's young professionals who are trying to balance career and love in the heart of Georgia. Perhaps some future Real Housewives are being bred?
Check out the cast bios below, and then watch the exclusive sneak peek at The New Atlanta!
Alexandra Dilworth: A recent college grad, Alexandra is seen and heard in Atlanta's hot Electronic Dance Music scene. She is a self-proclaimed "daddy's girl" on the look-out for a husband who will be able to accommodate her current luxurious lifestyle.
PHOTOS: Stars' blingtastic engagement rings
Emily Lipman: Emily has the looks of the girl next door, but is a force to be reckoned with on her hunt for love. A successful boutique owner, she has quickly emerged as a new leader in Atlanta's growing fashion industry.
Africa Miranda: A triple threat—actress, singer and model, Africa Miranda is turning heads in Atlanta. Co-creator of the live concept show The Lipstick Junkies and the face of several international hair campaigns, her sultry voice and lovely locks have put her front and center in Atlanta's entertainment industry.
VIDEO: NeNe Leakes slams Brandi Glanville
Tribble Reese: A partner in an event promotion company, Tribble always has the scoop on the hottest parties in town. An up-and-comer in Atlanta's entertainment industry, this former arena football quarterback knows what it takes to score on the field but is also looking for a touchdown in love.
Jevon "Vawn" Sims: Vawn is known in Atlanta's bustling music industry as the "Go-to-Guy" for artist development and discovering new raw talent. Now writing a book promoting his theories on love and romance, this "bad boy" with "good boy" qualities talks about relationships like never before. His tell-it-like-it-is attitude is one that you will either love or hate.
(E! and Bravo are both part of the NBCUniversal family.)
