[ubuntu-uk] Oggcamp - stall/demo area
Aloha, It's a month to go to Oggcamp and I just wondered would the Ubuntu UK loco like a stand to display information there at the event, possibly demo Ubuntu machines, we could get a conference pack and also some cds for the event, but we'd need people to man it over the two days. http://oggcamp.org/ Some of the other distros/groups will be there also.

[ubuntu-uk] OggCamp 11
Hullo LoCo! We (Ubuntu UK Podcast Linux Outlaws) have just announced that we'll be holding another OggCamp this year. Apologies if you see this announcement in numerous places, we're trying to get the word out :) OggCamp 11 will be held on the 13th 14th August at Farnham Maltings [0] in Surrey and it's free to attend. Details are on our website [1]. We have put the basics about the event up on the site, and will add more information as we have it, including travel and accommodation info. As with last years event we'll have a few rooms available for people to give talks about things that interest them. The event isn't specifically about Free Software or indeed Ubuntu Linux, but it does lean heavily in that direction. If you'd like to talk about something that interests you, do come along, grab a slot and rock on. We're actively looking for sponsors of the event, so if you know any groups/companies who might be interested, do throw them our way. Contact details on the site [1]. Although entrance is free we'd ask that people sign up at Eventbrite [2] so we can get an idea of numbers ahead of time. If you later find you can't make it, do let us know so we can release the ticket. We'll be announcing more details over the coming months on both Linux Outlaws [3] and the Ubuntu UK Podcast [4], and of course we'll update the main site [1] too. Cheers, Al.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] oggcamp / bar camp (torbay)
A barcamp generally should have at least three rooms and one of them should be enough to hold as many people as you have that are attending. As it tends to be a fairly geeky set of people, you'll need to have sufficient bandwidth for your attendees, including wifi coverage of the building. At the first OggCamp, the wifi routers didn't have sufficient DHCP scope for all the attendees, leading to many disconnections. Consider also travel arrangements - some people will want to stay nearby, while others will travel from far and wide to get there. Try to bear this in mind - what are the travel links like? What hotel facilities are nearby? Have you considered organising an All-nighter? OggCamp is the name of a particular barcamp style event, but you might get UUPC and Linux Outlaws to support you reusing the name. I've known a few people that have organised barcamp events, feel free to drop me a note off-list if you want me to pass your details on to them? All the best, and I hope your event goes really well! -- Jon The Nice Guy Spriggs LPIC-1 Certified This message was sent from my mobile device.

[ubuntu-uk] Oggcamp 10 Showcasing the latest Ubuntu release
Hi everyone First post, so let me introduce myself. My name is Les Pounder, I live in Blackpool, and I have been using Ubuntu since 6.06 Dapper Drake. I have been using Linux since 2000 (Corel Linux), and I currently work as an IT Service Manager for the DWP. I will be part of the crew at Oggcamp (http://oggcamp.org/) this year, and I have just posted an activity on http://ideas.oggcamp.org/activities What I would like to do is set up an area where we can advocate the use of Ubuntu, show off the latest release and provide face to face help to any users that have any queries. To do this I desperately need your help! Would anyone like to volunteer to help me get this idea off the ground? If you can provide Yourself Your laptop / netbook Your time on the day then we can really show the attendees how excellent Ubuntu is, and answer any questions that they may have. Thanks for reading, and all the best. -- Les lespoun...@googlemail.com Twitter @biglesp Identi.ca @lesp lespounder.wordpress.com -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

[ubuntu-uk] OggCamp 10
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Ladies and Gentlemen, I was about to book train tickets for OggCamp, but thought before I did so I'd see if anyone on these lists from the Derby area was going and wanted to car share and split the cost of petrol. I intend to travel to and from the venue on both days (that's my compromise for taking the weekend away from the family), but obviously if you're not then you pay less petrol money. I'd like to book train tickets in the next couple of days if no-one takes me up on the offer, so a quick response would be appreciated.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] OggCamp!
I will most likely be *speaking* at OggCamp. It should be good fun, look out for me, and it would be nice to have a good few people looking at my talk (on http://launchpad.net/suvat if anyone wants to read up on it in advance). I'll also be at LRL. Hope to see plenty of you there! -- Josh Holland j...@joshh.co.uk (key F6067C12) http://joshh.co.uk dutchie on irc.freenode.net http://twitter.com/jshholland http://identi.ca/jshholland signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
