Commit message

[r=noodles][ui=none] What's new and version.txt for 10.04.

Description of the change

This updates the version number (in version.txt) to 10.04 and also refreshes the "Recent blog posts" items on the Launchpad front page.

The new blog posts cover:

 * The increase of the standard PPA size to 2GiB (Matthew R)
 * Automatic translation template generation from a Bazaar branch (Danilo)
 * Easier project configuration in the "Get involved" portlet (Curtis)
 * Ubuntu package suggestions for projects (Curtis).

None of these blog posts is yet live but arrangements are in place with the authors named above.

You can view these changes at https://launchpad.dev (take a look at the footer for the version number change).

Hi Matt,

Assuming the links will work this is all good. I had one thought about the following text, but you're the wordsmith, so feel free to ignore it (I think it's just the stupid feeling when reviewing that you have to find something;) ):

> + There are new links to configure your project's use of Launchpad direct from its project overview page.

Just a feeling rather than any knowledge of grammar, but s/direct/directly ?

I actually thought the following substitution was a bit easier:

s/direct from its/right on the/

You're right about "directly"; it was a hang over from a previous wording form. Thanks for spotting that. I've changed it to "right on the" as you suggested.
