[UbuntuWomen] ANNOUNCING the WINNERS of the 1st Annual Ubuntu Women World Play Day Competition

[Michael O'Donohue]

Hi All,

Thanks so much to all those who voted for Orla.  We had a funny evening missing Jonos initial announcement and only getting to watch the replay at 10pm.  The excitement in the room was unbelievable!  Orla and her little brother didn't get to sleep for ages!!

I'll definately work something out to get Orla to the next Ubuntu Hour.  Honestly she is absolutely over the moon!!

Again, sincere thanks to all of you!!

Kind regards,

Mike

Just me Amber.

There are lots of Linux users who don't care how the kernel works, but
only want to use it. That is a tribute to how good Linux is.
