Re: [ubuntu-uk] Team meeting minutes
the minutes of the meeting are available here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/MeetingNotes/20110505 Things to note are Ubuntu Open Week which is on now, and the Ubuntu Developer Summit which is next week. We are going to plan a day out to the British Library where there will be a delightfully geeky Science Fiction exhibition. Probably on a Saturday or Sunday in July/August, feel free to start discussing now, we will send out a poll of dates once we narrow it down a bit. Next meeting is 9PM on Thursday 26th May.
