Hi All,<br>
<br>
Andru (the guy leading the Jam in Limerick) has agreed to host a
google hangout from the ubuntuie google plus account during the
Jam this Saturday. I'm not familiar with google hangouts but if
you'd like to join the hangout I believe you need:<br>
a google plus account <br>
have ubuntuie in one of your circles<br>
have the required google_talkplugin installed (deb packages
available for both 32 and 64 bit systems)<br>
have a webcam (may or may not be required)<br>
<br>
I had a problem installing the plugin through the automagical
Software Center (it kept crashing (this is a know bug)) so I
opened a terminal and resorted to: <br>
<br>
sudo dpkg -i PACKAGE.deb<br>
<br>
I think attending the Jam via the google hangout would be a great
way to get involved remotely. Of course IRC is always an option
with the #ubuntu-ie channel on freenode.<br>
<br>
The collective wisdom of those on IRC and on the Google Hangout
should be able to respond to any questions that may arise.<br>
<br>
Based on my understanding there is a huge drive for testing this
cycle. As 12.04 LTS will be supported for 5 years on both the
desktop and the server it should be stable and reliable.<br>
<br>
So why not test 12.04 beta 1 on your hardware via any of the
methods available?<br>
<br>
Kind Regards<br>
<br>
Mike<br>
