<div dir="ltr">Hi Muhammad and Jeff, Thanks for the feedback... As you can see from the new form, the address is mainly for mobilisation purposes... although if someone can publish a Singapore Linux magazine I am sure it would be a welcome addition... maybe we might have someone down the road with an experience in publishing a free magazine like IS, that is, free distribution but paid for by advertisements.

I'm not saying that I don't trust you, but getting addresses is a bad idea. Instead of address, I suggest that you change it to "Country" (ie, Singapore, Malaysia) or maybe "Location" (ie: East, West, North, South, Central). You can stick with the address though, but may I know, will you be sending newsletters or updates via snail mail? Thank you.<div><div></div><div> On Thu, 2008-08-07 at 02:00 +0800, Rykel™ (Aen™) wrote: <blockquote type="CITE"> Pals, By now you should have received a separate email with a form I made. As John said, let's at least get a proper list of supporters before we do anything... tell us about yourself in that form, and while I do not know what getting ourselves together will mean, but at least we are doing something! If anyone thinks that the form can be improved, so that some other vital statistics can be captured, just let me know. It is an open form, so I can share the "source code" with you if you can help contribute to the Ubuntu cause. : ) Like it was said, "Just do it."

Not so much as being a salesman, but as an adviser. Distributing of brochure is also acceptable. As long as I am able to create an awareness about free software alternatives. But I have to admit to you guys that, I'm not good in designing brochure or getting sponsors to print brochures. Anyone has experience? When is Comex coming up? This could be a step towards a brighter future for FOSS in Singapore! Anyone game enough to set some goals that are achieveable? Looking forward to an exciting experience! </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <blockquote type="CITE"> <blockquote> <blockquote> -- Ubuntu-SG mailing list <a href="mailto:Ubuntu-SG@lists.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">Ubuntu-SG@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-sg" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-sg</a> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <blockquote type="CITE"> <blockquote> Things do not look so bright a few times in computer shows. And I've seen last minute discussion about promoting Linux or so in computer shows back last time in LUGS mailing list. And last PC show, although I meant my friend who is doing sales, and the product comes with ubuntu, he hardly know much about ubuntu. Btw, there's software freedom day in September, I think more attention is focused there. An achievable goal, will be bi-annual ubuntu launch party. I don't think I see a mini launch party(or small gathering) here first ... We don't even know the headcount of volunteers here ... So it's good to know, as well as get contacts, and etc. just in case.
