Not everyone is aware of the meetings.

May I give some history or untold story about this project? when I first thought about something to promote Lubuntu and how we should reach to more users, I decided to contact OMG Ubuntu guys and talk to them. OMG Ubuntu write about Lubuntu every now and then and once, they mentioned Lubuntu One Stop Thread [<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/11/five-handy-lubuntu-tips/">http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/11/five-handy-lubuntu-tips/</a>] and it was a surprise to me because I didn't ask them to do that, they did it all by themselves. I did contact them but they didn't get back to me. Right after that, I thought why do I have to contact someone? why not do something similar that is Lubuntu Specific ONLY? why not having our own page, group, whatever to publish Tips and News about Lubuntu? here came the idea of WOW Lubuntu. Didn't want to use the same "OMG" so I didn't honestly find better than "WOW". I'm the one who created it but I no longer want to be the ONLY ONE behind it. This project should be maintained and be under one of Lubuntu Communication Team's Tasks. It is NOT hard, it is very simple. What we need to do is: Publish whatever new and whatever is going on which is suitable to publish and helpful/useful for users to learn and know about. It's not a rocket since, it's marketing/communication easy task. I don't mind to do that myself but my point us, ALL of us must help each other and work as a team. This is why I'm sending this Email because I HATE TO WORK ALONE, I want to work with a TEAM. So, whoever support this project, please reply with +1 If you don't, reply with -1 If you are confused and don't really know what to say, reply with 0 As always, thank you for your time! P.S. I wasn't ignoring or forgetting about it just in case you see no activities on that page but I had lots of issues (Real Life) that kept me away from it, that is all :) <div class="gmail_quote"> ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: amjjawad HOOHAA <<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:amjjawad@gmail.com">amjjawad@gmail.com</a>> Date: Sat, Jan 14, 2012 at 8:20 PM Subject: WOW Lubuntu!

This project has one main target and aim: reach to as many users as possible. I for one think that every user who has come across Lubuntu needs to return the favor to such great system and to do that, he/she can simply JUST TALK about Lubuntu and SHARE his/her experience/story with someone else. I believe this is the right time for such move and I think the more we talk and do for Lubuntu, the more support we shall get. Lubuntu really deserves that, thus this simple and humble project is a little pay-back for the great and amazing system (Lubuntu). <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/WOW-Lubuntu/251544618247684" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pages/WOW-Lubuntu/251544618247684</a> Thank you! -- <div dir="ltr">Best Regards, amjjawad <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1844755" target="_blank">Lubuntu One Stop Thread (Mega Thread)</a> <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif" href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad" target="_blank">My Wiki Page</a> | <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif" href="https://launchpad.net/%7Eamjjawad" target="_blank">My Launchpad</a> | <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif" href="http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=941822" target="_blank">My Ubuntu Forum Profile</a> My Actions Speak Louder Than My Words || I walk by faith, not by sight || Imagination is more important than Knowledge || Keep It Simple and Short</div> </div> </div> -- <div dir="ltr">Best Regards, amjjawad Lubuntu Support Team Co-ordinator Lubuntu Communication Team Administrator <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;color:rgb(51,102,255)" href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1844755" target="_blank">Lubuntu One Stop Thread</a> <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;color:rgb(51,102,255)" href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad" target="_blank">My Wiki Page</a> | <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;color:rgb(51,102,255)" href="https://launchpad.net/%7Eamjjawad" target="_blank">My Launchpad</a> | <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;color:rgb(51,102,255)" href="http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=941822" target="_blank">My Ubuntu Forum Profile</a> </div> </div> <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> </body> </html>
