Partly analysis, partly a review of past conflicts, the writer touches on Mir and Wayland, and what he sees as Canonical's attempts to take over projects. From the article, 'However, despite these other concerns, probably the most important single reason for the reservations about Ubuntu is its frequent attempts to assume the leadership of free software a position that no one has ever filled, and that no one particularly wants to see filled. In its first few years, Ubuntu's influence was mostly by example. However, by 2008, Shuttleworth was promoting the idea that major projects should coordinate their release schedules. That idea was received without enthusiasm. However, it is worth noting that some of those who opposed it, like Aaron Seigo, have re-emerged as critics of Mir another indication that personal differences are as important as the issues under discussion.'"

TALLAHASSEE (CBSMiami/NSF) An appeals court Friday ruled that a correctional officer can use the states controversial stand your ground law in a case stemming from an altercation with an inmate.

Correctional officer Brad Heilman was charged with aggravated battery after an inmate was injured in an incident at Lake Correctional Institution.

A three-judge panel of the 5th District Court of Appeal sided with Heilman Friday.

A circuit judge found that Heilman could not use the stand your ground law in defense because of another state law that deals with circumstances when correctional officers can use force. But Fridays seven-page opinion, written by appeals-court Judge Thomas Sawaya and joined by judges William Palmer and Wendy Berger, concluded that the Legislature intended for the stand your ground law to apply to correctional officers and sent the case back to circuit court.

The stand your ground law says people can use deadly force and do not have a duty to retreat if they think it is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm. The law offers criminal and civil immunity in such cases.

The News Service of Florida contributed to this report.
