Hello, What about jaunty LoCo packs (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingCds) ? Nizar.
2009/2/25 Jono Bacon <[email protected]>: > Hi Everyone! > > Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, it is that time of the year again > - it is time to start organising your Ubuntu Release Party > <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseParties>! This time for our > friend, Ubuntu 9.04, the Jaunty Jackalope. > > Every time we kick out a new version of Ubuntu we like to get together, > celebrate the release and have a great time. And you know what, I think > we all deserve it. After six months of hard work building our lovable > Operating System in the many different ways in which we all contribute, > we are all about ready to let our hair down, get together and toast to > Ubuntu and Free Software in general. If you have not contributed to the > community you are not only welcome but encouraged to come and party with > us - release parties are a fantastic opportunity to get to know our > friendly and bustling community! Good times! > > So, with this blog post I want to kick off the call for parties. The > last two releases have generated a great selection of parties from all > around the world, but for Jaunty I want us to get out there and smash > it: lets make this the release with more parties than ever before! When > Jaunty is released everyone should be close to a fun, welcoming release > party. We can do it, folks. :) > > > Making It Happen > > Alrighty, so how do we make this happen? Simple, follow these simple steps: > > * First you need to pick a date. Jaunty is released *Thursday 23rd > April 2009*. Some people party on the same day, some on the Friday > and some on the Saturday. Pick a date that works for your group > party people. Sometimes you may get different opinions on when to > hold the party: don’t let this get the better of you, so make sure > you don’t spend too long debating the best date. > * Find a venue to have the party in. This can be as simple as just > nominating a bar or restaurant. More details on how to organise a > party are available here > <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingCommunity/RunningReleaseParty>. > If you have any questions, check out the ubuntu-event-planners > <https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-event-planners> > and loco-contacts > <https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts> mailing > lists. Also, check out the |#ubuntu-locoteams| IRC channel on > Freenode. > * Add your party to this page > <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseParties>. Make sure you add > the name and preferably the email address of the main organiser(s) > of the party. This is the page we use to tell people where all the > parties are. > * Spread the word! Blog about it, twitter/identi.ca it, put up > posters, tell your local computer groups and anything else you can > do to make sure that everyone knows about your party! The more > people who know the more people may come! :) > > OK, so there we have it. Lets get this show on the road. I myself will > be at the release party in London, but I can’t wait to hear which > parties you are all organising! Oh, and one quick tip: don’t put it off. > I have heard many stories in which someone decides they want to organise > a party but they don’t have enough time. The reason I wanted to announce > now is that it gives us all plenty of time to get together a rocking set > of parties. Wicked. :) > > Jono > > -- > Jono Bacon > Ubuntu Community Manager > jono(at)ubuntu(dot)com > www.ubuntu.com / www.jonobacon.org > > > > > -- > loco-contacts mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts > -- loco-contacts mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts
