14 DAY TRIAL // Canonical's Snappy Ubuntu Core development team has started reporting the new features and changes that have been implemented lately in the operating system for Internet of Things.
Therefore, as of today, June 16, we will start writing a new series of articles to keep you guys in the loop with the latest developments in the Ubuntu Snappy Core operating system.
In the past two weeks, the Snappy Ubuntu Core team has done a lot of awesome work to Canonical's OS for Internet of Things (IoT), among which we can mention fixes for node-snapper, which now works as expected, and a tutorial for node-to-snap.
Also, the chatroom snap has been updated, the selftests branch has been merged into lp:snappy for improved testing maintenance, and the Snappy Tools Personal Package Archive (PPA) has been updated with the latest snaps.
"Starting this week I'll be sending weekly status describing what the Snappy Core Team accomplished. This might not cover everything in details, but should help other to follow what is currently happening around Snappy," says Ricardo Salveti de Araujo.
The Raspberry Pi 2 image has been updated
Furthermore, we can mention that the Ubuntu Snappy Core development team has managed to update the Raspberry Pi 2 image, which has been published at http://people.canonical.com/~platform/snappy/raspberrypi2/.
Moreover, there's now a rolling-release/bleeding-edge branch of Snappy Ubuntu Core available for testing, based on Ubuntu 15.10 (Wily Werewolf), and of course, the first stable build based on Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) has been published.
Last but not least, the Snappy team has published a list of QA stories that they want to cover for providing proper automation for the image testing of the released Ubuntu Snappy Core builds.
