Hosting a release party

[Bob Jonkman]

Let us all know when you've got something definite planned.  Not so much
for the Win7 party (I'm, er, doing my hair that day), but the Ubuntu
party.  KWartzLab is right close to home for me.

Release party howto is at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingCommunity/RunningReleaseParty

Ubuntu swag would be fun, but I'd come out even to a swagless party.

Don't forget to announce Ubuntu Release Parties at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicReleaseParties and also
http://identi.ca/group/urp (he says, blatantly promoting his own
identi.ca group).
