This includes a keynote by Mark Shuttleworth and several key people from Canonical coming in to give talks. Of all the UbuCons in the world, I feel very fortunate that the community team at Canonical has selected an UbuCon right here in California to test their first UbuCon Summit format! As in years past, Richard Gaskin and Nathan Haines are playing key roles in organizing. Michael Hall of Canonical has sent the following to help spread the word, I hope you can join us and participate :) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Michael Hall <<a href="mailto:mhall119@ubuntu.com">mhall119@ubuntu.com</a>> Date: Fri, Dec 18, 2015 at 12:20 PM Subject: Supporting the UbuCon Summit To: ubuntu-community-team <<a href="mailto:ubuntu-community-team@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-community-team@lists.ubuntu.com</a>> I wanted to remind you all of the UbuCon Summit[1] we're hosting in Pasadena, California this January. It is a two day event, co-hosted with the Southern California Linux Expo (SCALE)[2] on Jan. 21 and 22. We have some great speakers lined up for it already, including Mark Shuttleworth, developers from Canonical and leaders from the Ubuntu community[3]. We will also have an Ubuntu booth for all 4 days of SCALE, where we will be showing off the new Ubuntu phones, convergence and IoT devices. We need your help spreading the word about this event, so that everybody who might want to attend knows about it. If you are in the Southern California area, please let local technology and students groups know about it. Share the links below to mailinglists and forums where you think people might be interested in it (but be respectful, not spammy). And if you post about it on social media, try and tag Ubuntu in it and include the hashtag #ubucon. We are also still looking for sponsors[4] for UbuCon, to help pay for the rooms at the event, as well as sending more Ubuntu Members to the event. And as a reminder, if a company pays for an Ubuntu Member to attend (whether they are an employee or not) they qualify as an "In Kind" sponsor and can have their logo listed on the sponsors page of the <a href="http://ubucon.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">ubucon.org</a> website. UbuCon is a free event that is open to anybody, but we do as that you register[5] first so that we know how many attendees to expect. We also encourage you to stay for all of SCALE if you can, the UBNTU code will give you a 50% discount on your registration for that.
