Dear LazyWeb,
AFAIK Ubuntu is using http://security.ubuntu.com to provide security updates for its packages. What about security section under http://archive.ubuntu.com ? It will be dropped if favor of http://security.ubuntu.com ?
I’ll apreciate any information about that.
Thanks!

Tengo el agrado de comunicar que contamos con un nuevo mirror de Ubuntu en Chile, gracias a la Escuela de Ingeniería Informática de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso y su emergente grupo de usuarios *nix GNUCV.
Este mirror contempla:
* Arquitecturas: i386, amd64.
* Paquetes: binarios y sources.
* Secciones: main, restricted, universe y multiverse.
* Releases: Dapper, Feisty, Gutsy, Hardy e Intrepid.
* Extras: $release-{security,updates,backports,proposed}.
Para ocupar el mirror, basta con añadir la siguiente línea a /etc/apt/sources.list (como root)
deb http://mirror.gnucv.cl/ubuntu release seccion
Por ejemplo, si tenemos instalado Hardy Heron, debemos agregar:
deb http://mirror.gnucv.cl/ubuntu hardy main universe multiverse restricted
deb http://mirror.gnucv.cl/ubuntu hardy-updates main universe multiverse restricted
Luego
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
Espero que este recurso sea de gran utilidad para los ubunteros.
Saludos!

Hi,
Days ago members of our LoCo team noticed that a Chilean consulting company is using part of the Ubuntu logo (the circle of friends)

It’s look familiar … or not? What we should do as LoCo Team?
We’ll appreciate any kind of help.
Cheers!
UPDATE: This post had a good effect from Convoca guys. They changed its logo into

Thanks to everyone who gave me ideas to solve this conflict.
