Looks good.  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. :)

Hello Liam,
I'll be at the Shooting Star on Sunday by 12 noon.  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

Won't run on my Thinkpad X31. 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.

John, remind me - where & when is the London do? Is it alongside the
42 day party at the Shooting Star?

Hello Alan,
Good reminder about pictures, I'll try take some tomorrow at the event I am
running - so long as I dont get too carried away playing with the new
netbook desktop... :-)

[ubuntu-uk] Release Party Photos

2010-10-09 Thread Alan Pope
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.
