[ubuntu-uk] [Welsh] Confirmed Welsh Release Party
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I am emailing to notify those who do not know that the Welsh Team has organised their Jaunty Release party on Saturday April 25th in the capital, Cardiff. We have a poster designed by littletank, which can be viewed on my website at http://ianto.ch/images/flyer.png however that is just the starting venue. After much discussion in the IRC meeting, it was decided that there will be two venues, one after the other for reasons which I shall now explain. Our first venue, listed on the poster is due to the fact that some people are either too young or do not feel welcome in a drinking environment and as such, Starbucks was a viable choice; we geeks are renown for our coffee habits. Secondly, it has been suggested that the posters will attract some who may not have previously come due to it being in a nice and plain accessible shop such as Starbucks, I was not personally sure how that works but I think that it will so please don't email me back asking how ;-). After 7pm however, we will be moving onto The Central Bar, Cardiff CF10 3BW for a more socially drinkable location for those who are able and it is like that those who can't will then be able to tag along and have a cola, juice or something similar. It is possible to buy food in the bar if one chooses to get some from there. All people are welcome and are invited to attend our release party in the capital of Wales, especially those who live in or are close to Wales itself. Also due to the fact that both the wiki and the team name are in Welsh, the main language being used will be English, so please don't be put off with the idea that people will be conversing to each other in Welsh if you are an English speaker who may come over and may not then understand what is actually happening. And at the same time, if there are two Welsh speakers there, then by all means, choose your preferred tongue especially if /*ti'n moin gallu siarad Cymraeg!*/ you want to be able to speak Welsh! I'd like to get a general headcount for the day, so if possible could you email me back to this address either directly or through this mailing list so that I can get a rough estimate and/or give you directions for the (two) venue(s). My mobile number is however listed on the poster too if directions are required, however I cannot make outwards calls or texts momentarily. With kind regards, Christopher Swift. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkniogAACgkQYckxdhCgq46Y1QCePo4WrZnpCcGRdjyu8fInvTGa MIkAnjYoiyy412C+vGgbrEPIqNuxNe34 =6oyx -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

[ubuntu-uk] Manchester Release Party Poster
As promised in an earlier thread, I've created a poster for advertising the Manchester Ubuntu 9.04 Release Party (over 40 sign-ups already, we're doing well!). It's 9.8MB in size and available at http://lucybridges.co.uk/JackalopeReleaseParty.pdf It's copied from a poster for the Irish release party at: http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/en/poster/jaunty-release-party Please feel free to spread it around! There is a slight problem with it though - because we need to have everyone sign up in advance I needed to put a simple URL that people could go to on the poster, so I've used the ubuntu-uk.org address. Could someone put a link to the release party details (for both London and Manchester to be fair) on the site pretty please? If anyone wants the source files and SVG please let me know.
