Here is a request for 64-bit user assistance. I have one machine running 64 bit and I heard there were a few others.
I may have mentioned this 2006 article about the 32-bit to 64-bit migration by Eric Raymond before but I still think it's relevant despite the shifting timeline. http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/world-domination/world-domination-201.html Cheers, Grant Bowman https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Fabian Rodriguez <[email protected]> Date: Fri, Jul 9, 2010 at 9:20 AM Subject: Fwd: [Bug 585940] Re: Text reads "not recommended" for 64-bit To: "Ubuntu local community team (LoCo) contacts" <[email protected]> Hi all, I have been following this bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585940 And I thought I would join/find existing 64-bit resources. It seems the current team and IRC channel were mostly dormant, so I'd like to invite all loco-team contacts to invite people that use or consider using 64bit system in their respective teams to join/make this resources known. I also created a project, so Answer and FAQs can be created. See below my original comment in the bug.

I'd invite anyone interested in improving the current situation to check the following resources, **make them known through your online & social networks** and possibly join them: Freenode IRC channel (##ubuntu-64-bit on Freenode): http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23%23ubuntu-64-bit 64-bit Ubuntu users team in Launchpad (and Wiki): https://edge.launchpad.net/~64-bit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/64BitTeam Answers and FAQ project: https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/64-bit Ubuntu forums 64-bit user group: http://ubuntuforums.org/group.php?groupid=258 -- loco-contacts mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts -- Ubuntu-us-ca mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-ca
