Dear all, exciting times! As Julien has released the final version for lubuntu lucid, it is time to promote the release. We are having a lot of hits on lubuntu.net and blogs are pushing the news.
We also need to get the message about lubuntu out in the mainstream. I formulated a press release which you can find on http://lubuntu.net/news/ [1] and in the wiki. If you would like to help, please correct errors (as I am not an English native speaker) and help translating the release into your language in the wiki [2]. There are also some images for promotion available from Rafael Laguna in the Artwork section here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Artwork/ . If you have any contacts to journalists, please send the release to them. It would be good to have journalists signing up the newly installed newsletter on lubuntu.net as well. Finally, there are a lot of forums that exist already. Please join your local Ubuntu forum and support people who install lubuntu the first time. In the http://ubuntuforums.org lubuntu related entries can be tagged "lubuntu". As this release is marked as a "final beta" be aware that this is an excellent release, but also be aware that development is ongoing and as more people start using lubuntu some bugs might appear. So, we need more developers who can join development actively. All the best from Vietnam, Mario [1] http://lubuntu.net/news/faster-lightweight-and-energy-saving-desktop-lubuntu-1004-stable-beta-released [2] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Marketing/Press%20Releases _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
