> Good morning,
> 
> Just wanted to give you an update on what's been going on on our community.
> 
> 1) Arne Goetje is more than willing to help us out with the
> translations. He already pointed me to the right direction in getting
> our languages into glibc and has assigned Hiligaynon, Cebuano, Bikol,
> Iloko, Pangasinan, Pampanga, and Filipino languages under our Launchpad
> team. We're now the administrators of the said languages on Ubuntu and
> I'll be taking charge of committing them upstream - and I'll need all
> the help I can get.
> 
> 2) It seems that there's a few more members who are not aware that we
> have an official team logo so I've created the Logo wiki[1]. Too bad
> we've lost the original wiki page when mekong went down, but at least
> now we can point newer members to the said wiki.
> 
> 3) The Jaunty Release Party was a success, we've got links to blogs and
> pictures at the ReleaseParty wiki[2] for those interested.
> 
> 4) There's still no updates from Canonical on when we'll get our website
> back. But we can now monitor the progress on the Ubuntu RT site[3]. The
> request is ticket no. 4530[4]. You can login using ubuntu as both the
> username and password.
> 
> 5) I'm planning a Filipino Translate-athon. It'll be an online/irc event
> where we'll get to help each other out translate packages on Launchpad.
> It's a great way to boost our Karma especially for anyone who wishes to
> apply for an Ubuntu membership.And we can finally see Filipino on the
> next release - Karmic Koala.
> 
> 6) And finally, Loell Erecre (our forum moderator) will apply for an
> Ubuntu membership while I'll renew mine. Please do support us on May 12,
> 2009 at 6PM on #ubuntu-meeting at irc.freenode.net. Any support from you
> guys would be highly appreciated.
