Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Ubuntu Developer Week - Preparation
Thanks :) Well, team - Any other ideas? (I'm allowed screen shots in the presentation as well). Regards, Phill.

I do need thoughts in by about Wednesday. OK, lets do an outline for people to improve on. Try something like: Title: Lubuntu: Getting Started with a new lightweight Ubuntu Flavour 1. What is Lubuntu? (two sentence definition) 2. Why do we need abother *ubuntu flavour? (reason for our existence) 3. Who is it useful to? (intended audience) 4. How to get started (where to download, where to get help) 5. What do do when you have issues with it (where/how to report bugs) 6. Minimal hardware needed: 6.1 for GUI install 6.2 for manual install on very low RAM machines 7. Current known issues (point to FAQ) 8. What changes will Lubuntu Oneiric bring? 9. How you can help (testing/developing/translating/etc.) 10. Any questions? That should fill a UDW slot, I'd think? It's not super developer-focused, but that is probably OK? Depends on who the intended audience is, which I am not totally clear about. Comments and improvements welcome. BTW we should check what we officially are... a Ubuntu variant, or flavour or ... whatever it is... and then use that term consistently. I'd tend to skip the history -- users and potential developers are likely to care more about what Lubuntu can do for them *now* and what it *will* do in the future, than about the past.

Well, team - Any other ideas? (I'm allowed screen shots in the presentation as well). Maybe some screenshots of resource usage doing various activites, IE: idle, watching a movie, web browsing, music, etc. On Sat, Jul 9, 2011 at 11:21 AM, Julien Lavergne gi...@ubuntu.com wrote: Le Friday 08 July 2011 à 21:48 -0700, Jonathan Marsden a écrit : 1.
