[UCLP] Suggestions for next user day

[Nigel Babu]

Hello folks:

Thanks everyone for the wonderful time and spending that many hours at 
the computer.  I've got a few suggestions for the next User Day which I 
hope will be considered or shot down by everyone ;)

(a) Date set around 2 weeks to 1 month after Lucid release.  Then, sync 
with release cycles like every first weekend of May and November.  If 
possible, get release announcements (at least unoffical ones) to talk 
about User Days.
(b) Sessions on whats new in Lucid (gnome shell!)
(c) Total of 24 hours, but across 3 days like Day 1 - 0000 UTC to 0800 
UTC, Day 2 - 0800 UTC to 1600 UTC, and Day 3 - 1600 UTC to 0000 UTC.  
Probably only 2 of us per day.  We could divide work according to TZ's 
(this could be shot down but its a way to get everyone an opportunity to 
participate at some point and no complaints of Oh no!, it was night here)
(d) We planned to do screencasts, but due to various reasons, it was not 
ready.  Probably, get this ready by then.
(e) Have a meeting with all instructors beforehand on IRC.
(f) Having Duane and Jeremy around this time helped a great deal.  We 
should probably have a disaster management plan ;) (I think I'm being 
paranoid, shoot me down on this one if so)

I hope everyone ponders over this.

Warm Regards
Nigel Babu
