I wish I could have made it, alas I've been so busy. If things work out down here in Devon we might be able to have a release party for 11.04 in April. I guess we don't need much, maybe a couple of PCs to demonstrate Ubuntu and some refreshments, CDs etc and maybe a follow up event to help folks install Ubuntu.

Hardly a party, but we had fun! Met a few Linux users and told them about our LUG meetings, met a few people who were thinking about taking the plunge with Ubuntu so were happy to try it out. Met a fellow Ubuntu-UK member who let me play with his OLPC (thanks Alan!). And thanks to Popey who inspired our poster. :) http://museumofcomputing.org.uk/gallery/category/8 Dianne -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

The 42 day party should start from 3pm, assuming the ZZ9 people have a safe bus ride. We will be in the main bar for the Ubuntu event and the 42day party will be pub's downstairs function room from 3pm http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/307/detail/ Thank you -- John Stevenson Lean Agile Consultant / Coach jr0cket.com | leanagilemachine.com -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Something called Mutter continuously crashes & restarts the desktop every few seconds, making it extremely hard to do anything - such as file a bug report. But mind you, none of the reports of problems I filed with the previous netbook launcher on this machine were ever fixed, so I don't suppose this one will be either.

Hi, If anyone is going to any Ubuntu release parties over the weekend (and beyond) please do take pictures! If you have some good ones you'd like to share I'm sure we'd all like to see them. I know the Ubuntu News team are interested in pics too! Cheers, Al. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
