David Planella was kind enough to write up the announcement for the
upcoming Ubucon Summit:

UbuCons are a remarkable achievement from the Ubuntu community: a network
of conferences across the globe, organized by volunteers passionate about
Open Source and about collaborating, contributing, and socializing around
Ubuntu. The UbuCon at SCALE has been one of the most successful ones, and
this year we are kicking it up a notch.

I am thrilled to announce the next big event in the Ubuntu calendar: the
UbuCon Summit, taking place in Pasadena, CA, in the US, from the 21st to
22nd of January 2016, hosted at SCALE and with Mark Shuttlework on the
opening keynote.

During these two days, the event will be structured as a traditional
conference with presentations, demos and plenaries on the first day and as
an unconference for the second one.

We will also have two tracks to group sessions by theme: Users, for those
interested in learning about the non-tech, day-to-day part of using Ubuntu,
but also including the component on how to contribute to Ubuntu as an
advocate. The Developers track will cover the sessions for the technically
minded, including app development, IoT, convergence, cloud and more. One of
the exciting things about our community is that there is so much overlap
between these themes to make both tracks interesting to everyone.

The full announcement is available here:

Over the next few weeks we’ll be sharing more details about the Summit,
revamping the global UbuCon site and updating the SCALE schedule with all
relevant information.
