Also, I found this stuff interesting (from that Newsletter):

LoCo Team Banners for Approved Teams

Following on from my post last week regarding the up to date
conference packs and the new banners for APPROVED teams, we have
created a new wiki page we need the team contact to fill in. Again, a
big thank you goes to Canonical for making this possible!

LoCo Testing Team HowTo

Paolo Sammicheli gives an update to the Italian LoCo Teams ISO Testing
experience - I finally completed the wiki page about the Italian
experience in ISO Testing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/LoCoTeam I
would really love if other LoCos would like to start ISO TESTING
contributing in making Ubuntu everyday better. I also ask you to
continue improving that page sharing your experiences as well.

[This would be fun, I think. The alpha testing we did on Global Jam
day was interesting, but would be more fun with more people. -v]


Ubuntu 10.10 Installfests

We are looking forward to the release of the next version of Ubuntu,
version 10.10 the Maverick Meerkat. As we should in theory have access
to the final iso images slightly before the release date, we have an
opportunity to run installfests during the day of release. Where ever
you are, feel free to use this poster design based on an awesome
Meerkat photo. So if you want to use this you can check out the svg
source and the bitmap image on Ubuntu with: bzr branch
lp:~alanbell/+junk/installfest. Feel free to edit it using Inkscape,
change the time, date, LoCo logo and print it. You will need the
Ubuntu font to print it properly. You may be thinking that the orange
is too orangeish, that is because it is the correct CMYK colours for
printing which are quite a long way from the RGB colour specification.

[Again, would be fun..... -v]


Ubuntu Global Jam - Another Success Due to LoCo Teams Participation

For those of you who still maybe wondering what the Ubuntu Global Jam
event is all about here is how the wiki describes it : The Ubuntu
Global Jam is an incredible opportunity for the Ubuntu community to
unite together... to work together to improve Ubuntu. Everyone is able
to contribute to the Jam, and everyone is welcome and encouraged to
get involved. Curious about how to make a real difference to Ubuntu?
This is a great chance to make that difference.

The Ubuntu Global Jam incorporates events that have been organized
over the world to get Ubuntu contributors and fans together to have a
great time and improve Ubuntu.

The Ubuntu Global Jam was a big success again this cycle thanks to the
amazing participation from the awesome LoCo Teams across the globe.

[Yay us! -v]
