Ubuntu-news-team Digest, Vol 95, Issue 10

Fri Mar 18 21:19:16 UTC 2016

Hello lovely news team :-D

Kubuntu are going to run another party, such was the fun of the last one.

http://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-part-2/

      Friends it was such fun, we are going to DARE to do it again !

If you’re behind the curve on Kubuntu party then this previous post 
<http://kubuntu.org/news/a-big-blue-button/> will fill in the gaps.

Friday 15th April 20:00 UTC, we will !be dressing up in party frocks and 
pressing the “Big Blue Button” to teleport into (K)Ubuntu party land. I 
have deliberately broken out the K, to directly express our intent that 
the Kubuntu community team welcome and indeed, openly invite the Ubuntu 
community to come along and join us.

The event will be an on-line party; Held on our video conferencing 
server, which the folks at http://bigbluebutton.org provided for us.

    What you will need

  * PC / Laptop and Internet connection – required
  * Speakers / headphones – required
  * Microphone – optional
  * Webcam – optional
  * preferred snacks – optional
  * preferred beverage – optional

The conference suite provides IRC style chat, Voice and Video 
conferencing, and you can choose to join as many or as few of those 
mediums as you wish. There will be presentations, and screen shared live 
demo’s, with the main theme being Packaging.

Look forward to seeing you there

Rick Timmis
