FreeFileSync 3.21 is available on its official PPA. For Ubuntu users, the main new feature is its integration with Unity.

This version is the first one only available on Natty and later versions. Lucid (10.04) and Maverick (10.10) users, you are sticked to FreeFileSync v3.17.

Install FreeFileSync as usual, or wait for an automatic software update !

Edit 2011-11-30 : this PPA is now deprecated as OpenJDK7 is available in Ubuntu Oneiric repositories.

Many methods to install OpenJDK 7 on Ubuntu can be found on the Net :

• this PPA, but very old
  
• this method by downloading OpenJDK from Oracle's website, but you need to do the same thing on each of your computers.

OpenJDK 7 is "natively" available on Ubuntu Oneiric (11.10), but is not and won't be on Natty (11.04). But I need it now on Natty and I don't want to install it manually on each of my computers. More, I want a transparent migration when I will upgrade to Ubuntu Oneiric on next October.

So I decided to backport OpenJDK 7 Oneiric package to Natty and the result is available here : https://launchpad.net/~dlecan/+archive/openjdk

Add this ppa:dlecan/openjdk to your Ubuntu and install openjdk-7-jre or openjdk-7-jdk.

I will support this ppa as long as I will upgrade to Ubuntu Oneiric.

Enjoy !
