Nick Ali suggested that I send the proposal for an Annual Ubuntu User Conference to the list so here goes. The Proposal can be found at : <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NorthCarolinaTeam/AnnualUbuntuUserConference" target="_blank">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NorthCarolinaTeam/AnnualUbuntuUserConference</a> I also have it in .odt format if anyone wants it. I found out I couldn't attach it and send it to the list. :-) (I learn something new daily). I thought a wiki would be better as we can add to it and improve it. It was based on trying to get something planned for 2010 (not sure is that is possible now as I am not sure when the would be sponsors allocate their budgets for events like this.) I would enjoying working with others to plan the event and I don't mind sending out the RFP's to the cities that we think would meet the requirements once these are defined better by those who have planned F/LOSS events before. (My planning experience is Corporate/Government/Social markets). Maybe we can come up with a team to work on this and see if we can get this off the ground. Amber -- Just me Amber.

I think this is a great opportunity for the community and look forward to helping out. Dan </div></div>
