Hi MPT, thank you for the update : '2012-09-05: 376 applications are published in MyApps and 36 in Extras. So over 10% of Ubuntu applications now be updated without upgrading the OS.' So we have now have 10% of applications that can be updated, but more importantly we still have 90 % that can't

Please consider adding the lo-menubar by default, if only for consistency. In Ubuntu LO is probably one of the two most important default applications shipped with Ubuntu. Yet it is looks so out of place with the rest of the system, it really brings down the look of Ubuntu as a professional OS to

Hi Michael, This is a great start but will this mean that more applications are going to be back ported in the future? If the selection is still very small then I don't see much of a benefit? If the back ports can be synced against the newest versions of software in the future releases of Ubuntu
