morning all, we are Jamming today, kicking off with a session at 10 am
helping people get themselves set up with launchpad accounts, and
personal wiki pages and going through other similar setup bits to help
you get started.

This Saturday from 10AM to whenever we get bored there will be an
online global jam session for the Ubuntu UK community. You can think
of it as a virtual barcamp, and just like other barcamps the agenda is
open and available for you to fill out with what you want to do. The
agenda is in fact here: http://pad.ubuntu-uk.org/globaljam2011 we can
cover any subjects, but I would like to focus on actually *doing*
things rather than talking about doing things. Ideas could include
things like:
* Propose a hack session on an application you are working on and
need some help
* Talk about Debian packaging and lets actually package something
together
* Run though some Natty installation testing together
* Write some documentation together
The common theme is that this is a collaborative exercise in real time
and to support that we will be using the #ubuntu-uk IRC channel
<http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu-uk&uio=OT10cnVlJjEwPXRydWUmMTE9MjE46>
that we use for general support and chat, plus we will also be using a
voice over IP conferencing server that uses the Mumble client. This
client is in Ubuntu so just find it in the software centre or “sudo
apt-get install mumble” from a terminal. Once you have it installed
and running you need to connect to the server at mumble.libertus.co.uk
and then start talking away. Please use a headset microphone to avoid
feedback or you will have to use the push to talk feature which is a
bit unnatural. The server is up and running already, feel free to give
it a try in advance.
I look forward to hearing lots of people on Saturday!
Alan.
