[ubuntu-marketing] I forgot...

2008-02-18 Thread Rubén Hubuntu
Hello again...

I would like to introduce myself.

My name is Rubén and I have participated actively in the community
since october 2005, first through the forums, later with the Norwegian
team (mainly assisting with InstallFests) and last year I started the
Ubuntu Ecuador LoCo Team. I have been using GNU/Linux since 1998 and
ubuntu since march 2005 (Hoary beta or something along the lines with
Gnoppix).

I joined the marketing team in 2006 and have not really been that loud
in my participation here, but rather working with CD, stickers and
general Ubuntu distribution in the cold.

As part of the Spanish documentation team my aim is to get the UWN
(Called NSU in Spanish: http://doc.ubuntu-es.org/NSU ) up and running
so that it can be an instrument for all the Spanish speaking LoCo
teams (we are almost 20) in order to inform and get traction within
their local communities on what Ubuntu is and its development from
week to week, so that people see what's happening and get involved.

I have already got lots of help from people here in the team, and I'm
looking forward to hopefully be a resource for some of you too.

Best regards,

Rubén - Hubuntu

Re: [ubuntu-marketing] LoCo Map Proposal

 The page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoCreatingMap describes how LoCo 
 Teams can create maps of their members but I think it would be 
 beneficial to use Google Maps to show the location of all LoCo Teams and 
 maybe all of the members as well as general Ubuntu users. Is this a good 
 idea? Is there someone willing to help with this?
 
 Thank you,

Re: [ubuntu-marketing] LoCo Map Proposal

Can someone use the Google Maps or Mapplets API to create one central map
for all teams? http://code.google.com/apis/maps/

  Yes, similar, but it would be a google map and it would show where
 approved
  teams exist, where new teams exist, and where no teams exist.

 An non-interactive map of all approved loco teams exists in
 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamWorldMap (didn't have the time to do
 the unapproved ones yet). But if that kind of map could be made
 interactive (with zoom and country names and loco website links) it
 would be really great.

 A google map of loco team members can easily be created using the gmap
 drupal module (since most loco teams use drupal as their cms). Here is
 an example: http://ubuntu-gr.org/map/user (has an issue currently with
 the not working ballon tips when clicking on a user..).
