Hi all,
I went through my mails and came up with this list.
Do I have it right? Did I miss anyone? Is my geography dodgy?
Probably, but what should change.
Region Contact
Cape Town Stefano Rivera
Durban Wesley Werner
Stellenbosch JP(?)
Pretoria Nico Michael
Pretoria Ian Whitfield
Johannesburg Celeste
Johannesburg Stefan
Bloemfontein Frans
Port Elizabeth Andre Hugo
East London Vijay Makanjee
Limpopo Bill Cairns
NWU Schalk-Willem Krüger
I have given CDs to Wesley and JP. I haven't really found lifts for
the rest of the CDs. I think I am going to post them to everybody. The
postage will cost about R20 if I send it regular sapo style. I have
adresses for Ian, Stefan, Frans and Vijay. Will the others send me
their address please. Also if you think you don't want to be on the
list or if I have missed you, let me know too.
Just to clarify this is what I think a regional contact should be
prepared to do:
1. Put yourself on the list at ubuntu-za.org so people can contact you for CDs.
2. Be willing to organise to get a CD to someone in your area, ie a lift etc.
Optional extras a regional contact can do:
1. send me a photo of a CD changing hands or blog about it and send
me the link. (please, this would be so good for future approval)
2. Help someone get hold of a CD, ie burn an iso onto disk if the
printed CDs have run out.
3. Try to pick people who will actually install/use the CD and give one to them
4. meet for a <insert beverage of your choice> with like minded
ubuntu people and take a photo/blog and let the community know.
5. Anything else you can think of that would be good for ubuntu and
fits in with the Code of Conduct.
