Hi.
Just some questions about the Software Boutique.
Will the repositories be Canonical’s?
If yes to the above will all programs be available (including user’s reviews)?
Will programs installed through the Boutique be updated automatically?

Thanks.

Could someone help with the above questions ?

No. They are usually PPAs from developers. See this topic where you get more info as it’s written how it works and will probably give you some more answers.

Ubuntu MATE Welcome screen

It's entirely optional, it ensures you have up-to-date documentation, translations (for non-English users) and software listings for the Software Boutique. It's much quicker for @Wimpy to push updates to a dedicated PPA than submitting a request to upstream Ubuntu for approval/uploading. Of course, new versions will be pushed via normal updates, but not very often. Sorry, I nearly missed this! I'll note this down and see how Welcome can respect font sizes like the rest of the system.
