[Ubuntu-US-CA] Ubuntu Open Week - Presenting Ubuntu at Conferences

[Grant Bowman]

Hi Joe, it was good talking with you today.  For those that don't
know, more info on Open Week is at:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek

It runs from Monday, April 27th to Friday, May 1st.  If my
calculations are correct they run from 8 AM Pacific Daylight Time
(15:00 UTC) to 4 PM (23:00 UTC) each day.  Sessions are held via IRC
on http://freenode.net in the #ubuntu-classroom channel.

I've heard some feedback recently from California LUG members about
IRC.  The easiest client to use is available from http://pidgin.im
which handles IRC and several other IM protocols.  It's worth the
effort, really!

Cheers,
