Hi guys; I did some shirts for Jono for the community Leadership Summit, and felt good about it. So I'm thinking, how about some ubuntu-us-ca Tee's. Any thoughts?

Re: [Ubuntu-US-CA] User Group Link
Take it from someone who wants to get involved physically with a local group ( I live in El Monte, work in Lynwood), I really wish there was a group in my neck of the woods that meets consistently, or at the very least post there planed meetings timely so I can make an attempt to attend. It's for this very reason that I started to communicate with Grant as it appears to me he is passionate about this issue.
