Aloha ! We now have this fantastic all in one place information on teams, global and local events. It makes finding information for everyone a lot easier. It’s come on a long way and looks rather pretty also and is still being worked on there are bugs logged for some issues so with every week there are new improvements coming.
What I have noticed however is the amount of teams there on the LD with not up to date information, *no wiki page* listed, *no mailing list*, *no website, no IRC *channel listed or any information about themselves and in many cases most of the teams are providing this help. We need you to *update your information*, that’s either through *your team leader*,* point of contact* or you have *admins* set up on launchpad who can edit the loco directory, if you see your team has other resources that are not listed there *PLEASE ASK OF YOUR TEAM TO ADD IT!* This morning there were 69 teams listed on the LD with no fix abode they had no country listed against them. I’ve gone in and added them all, bar 5 which I need help on. In the LD Language is a mandatory field, I’ve added the one language against each team, you can select more, *PLEASE SELECT MORE *if you have more than one language in your team. Think of the directory from a new persons point of view a yellow pages of information they can access. If someone was in your area and wanted to learn more about your team, that information should be visible. They shouldn’t have to join a mailing list or an IRC channel just to find out where your wiki page is located. Also a really handy tool for people who are travelling is they can view the LD and see if there are any events going on in the area so they can drop by and say hi. Before I started it looked like http://www.lczajkowski.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/teamswithnocountry.png Now all of the teams are filed under a country - http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ Teams should have *at least one person* who is able to update their team information if not at least two/three depending on size of your team so they can add events, make sure the information is kept up to date. There are lots of people hanging out in #ubuntu-locoteams if you need a hand just ask in there Laura <http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/> -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/czajkowski http://www.lczajkowski.com Skype: lauraczajkowski -- loco-contacts mailing list loco-contacts@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts
