Fwd: Packaging Jams

[Theresa Hepburn]

For people like me who have/had no concept of what a "packaging jam" is 
supposed to be there's going to be a "packaging 101" session in 
#ubuntu-classroom on irc.freenode.net at 11am next Thursday Dec. 13 
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Events#Packaging101 && 
http://www.worldtimeserver.com/convert_time_in_UTC.aspx?y=2007&mo=12&d=7&h=16&mn=0)


Although the "Packaging Guide" 
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Introduction) is pretty detailed 
I'm thinking I won't be much help since I failed the pre-reqs.

I DO like the idea of a Packaging Jam for our LoCo Team quite a lot 
though. I can bring enthusasiam and sideshow entertainment.
