That's great, we have a few offers for venue space on the table now, but more is better! It's good to have options :) What I think we need right now are drivers for events. I've done a lot of it in the past few years, but I have a pretty hectic travel schedule this year and work is taking up a lot of my time. It would be great to see some new faces planning events. Some event ideas: - Participate in Ubuntu Global Jam: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGlobalJam (I did a Quality Assurance Jam a couple years ago, went really well). - Installfest (need a full day for this, so probably 6 hours on a Saturday with a venue that has parking in case people bring towers+monitors) - Presentations on Ubuntu topics that may not be of interest to the broader LUG community (like rww's app dev suggestion) For some insight into past work, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects We used to participate in the Solano Stroll in Berkeley in September, and SFSU often has Software Freedom Day (also September) events on campus that it would be great to us participate in that more. -- Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph || Lyz || pleia2 http://www.princessleia.com -- Ubuntu-us-ca mailing list Ubuntu-us-ca@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-ca
