Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Very Quiet Here ?
I agree with your sentiment that Ubuntu Oregon seems dead (for a good while me, Phil and jvlb we're one of the few people active), and a still current world event that started around 2 years ago had me stop hosting Ubuntu Hours here in Salem. I'm hoping I can restart those here in the near future, I'm still weighing how safe that is.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Very Quiet Here ?
Hi Richard My name is Robin E-H Hoard, I am in Gladstone, and I am a member of Ubuntu (under robin haberman), Oregon. I am not a coder or bug fixer. My background with Ubuntu is more in business development. From 2013 to 2019, I worked with both Canonical and LibreOffice as a pitchman at O'Reilly Open Source Convention, Portland (OSCON) in the expo hall. The interesting thing is, in doing so, I got to meet a number of major players in each organization. Currently, I am moving into my fourth career and my third startup. I run a small design R&D Studio working on climate change civilian defense and early warning systems, using scaled-down versions of three major technologies: Hadoop, IoT, and AI – ML (all open-source for the project). My background: I worked ten years as a band roadie, ten years as a foundation document researcher, and almost twenty years for several companies in telecommunications OEM as a network manager and then field engineer. As far as my thoughts about rebuilding Ubuntu Oregon. Good question. There is a good playbook written by a friend, Jono Beacon, “The Art of Community.” I hope to use it in my project. I believe you can still download a copy for free.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Very Quiet Here ?
Just joined the list recently, and there's been zero activity. Is the Ubunto LOCO OR still active? If not, I'd like to try to re-boot it. I'm living in Salem. I'm a recent refugee from Silicon Valley, trying not to flunk retirement for the second time. The last time I flunked I spent 5 years at Mozilla. I've been playing with computers since the 60's, starting with Fortran on an IBM 7090. I was editor-in-chief at InfoWorld when the IBM PC was announced, and I've been involved in several start-ups. Let's see what we can do to build a vibrant Oregon Ubuntu community together.
