[Ubuntu-US-CA] California Team Leadership Candidates
Hi everyone, As I announced earlier this month, the team was seeking candidates for leadership[0] In that discussion thread we agreed that 3 co-leaders is the best approach, and those who chose to give input supported the leadership document put together by Jack Deslippe here[1] We have now closed the window for candidates to put their names forth for a leadership positing and ended up with the following: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Leadership/2010 As you can see, there are 3 candidates for the 3 spots! As such, instead of simply holding an election as a formality, the LoCo Council will wait until Sunday to confirm this new leadership, in that time giving folks in the team the opportunity to email them (loco-coun...@lists.ubuntu.com) if anyone has any serious problems or concerns with these candidates. Thanks again to everyone who engaged in this discussion and process.

[Ubuntu-US-CA] Maverick CDs have arrived!
Hi everyone, Neal had the Maverick CDs shipped up to me so I'm taking care of distribution this time around. If you would like some CDs, please contact me at l...@ubuntu.com with your name, address and purpose for request (Need some for your school or library? Handing out at small event?). If you are in the same area as someone else in the team who needs CDs please try to request them together as I'm paying for these shipping costs out of pocket and it's cheaper to send larger packages than several small ones (I know there are several folks in the San Diego area - maybe one of you can request some CDs and share with everyone else at the upcoming Ubuntu Hour there?). This is the only shipment the team gets per cycle, so please don't waste these CDs and request only a limited number to suit your needs! Follow these tips to help stretch our supply: 1. At tech events, inform (maybe hand out cards with instructions?) users that they can download and burn an ISO: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto 2. Burn ISOs as they wait! Bring along some blank CDs and a system that can burn a CD at the event and give them a fresh copy 3. For handing out at other events, use the pressed CDs as display copies and use our CD sleeves for burned copies: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/CDSleeves NOTE: For larger conferences please contact NealBussett at n...@bussett.com with details so he can request an https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAtConferences conference pack AT LEAST 6 weeks prior to the event I have added this information to the bottom of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/MaverickRelease so everyone will be able to keep track of the number of CDs still available.

Re: [Ubuntu-US-CA] Maverick CDs have arrived!
Also, something I've done in the past at events where I had little/no media (related to number 2 below): I have the live cd iso on my laptop ready to make live usb sticks for those who wanted to bring a usb along. Of course, for this to work well would entail an announcement prior to the event saying this option will be available, and it puts the onus of bringing media on the person who's getting it.
