Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Thanks for the advice Phil N, I just put our second meeting up on the Oregon Loco Team site: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-or/3247-corvallis-ubuntu-hour/ Yeah, Meetup is cool but if it's going to get very expensive them we'll have to give it a miss. Who knows, we might have our own

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Che, Great to hear your Ubuntu meeting went well, and glad to see your having a LoCo Ubuntu hour in your area. Speaking from past experience (VP of Salem Macintosh Users Group, and co-founder of Microportal - the electronics club) we've had our biggest turnouts during November meetings, I don't

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

So we had our first Corvallis meet up, it was quiet as expected being our first one and a last minute thing but it was a lot of fun. Even though most people didn't come up to us I suspect they were googling "Ubuntu" when they got home, they couldn't have missed our display. :-) From here on out

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Thanks Phil N, glad to help out. The "Ubuntu Blitz Campaign..." is a great idea especially for the LTS release. I'm looking for flyers to print out to save time, we have a few Ubuntu ones in mind but does anyone know where we can find up to date system76 and zareason flyers? On Mon, 19 Oct 2015

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Wow - Che's Ubuntu event is listed on Corvallis's events calendar page, and everything... WTG Che, and nicely written too. Unfortunately some VIPs are flying in from San Jose, so I'll have to miss this Thursday's event, as I'll be out all day. Wishing you all the best, on creating a new LoCo

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Che, I concur with what Cody said; Here in Salem we have been staying at around 3 people pre meeting, with a few visitors who temporary attend to get a problem or two solved. Stay vigilant, because people will eventually show up. Some things we found that work here in Salem are: * Small flyer

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Thanks for the advice guys. :-) We plan on a once a month get together at the Old World Deli. They have decent wifi and they never get over crowded, normally pretty quiet. The initial meetup for this months launch will be in the afternoon but we'll probably switch it to between 5pm and 7.30pm on a

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Che, the Salem Ubuntu Hour has been staying steady at about 3 people per meeting, peaked at 4-5, there's a core group (Me, Phil and jvlb) and occasionally we get others, and there's someone else who occasionally visits that Phill will remember the name where I don't. it used to be just me and

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Weekends would suit us better also, this initial meeting was only to coincide with the release day. Krita is a great idea, I wil be sure to include it. On Fri, 9 Oct 2015 at 23:00 Scarlett Clark wrote: > Please consider Krita https://krita.org/ > > It is our

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

Please consider Krita https://krita.org/ It is our (KDE) sparkling gem. Is is in archive so any *ubuntu flavor can install it. Cheers, Scarlett Also FWIW I think a weekend meeting of sorts would be awesome, I don't mind a bit of travel but weekdays are hard. On Fri, Oct 9, 2015 at 10:30 PM,

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

More than likely it will end up as it normally does, just me and Linda but who knows. We'll have fun either way. :-) On Fri, 9 Oct 2015 at 21:14 Walter Lapchynski wrote: > Can't wait to hear the story/see pictures on how this went. Thanks to Che > for his hard work and for

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

It will be fun. We'll bring the System76 Darter running Ubuntu 14.04.03 LTS, it's a couple of years old but it's still high end, i7, 16GB RAM, 500GB SSD, touch screen and also an ASUS 1011PX 2 GB RAM Netbook to show off how well Ubuntu Mate runs on older hardware. I'll install Darktable and
