Okay, a little help, please. Am I the only one that sees a great
opportunity here? Ubuntu Open Week is a time to show the community what
a great distribution Xubuntu really is! Why don't I see us doing a "how
to get involved in Xubuntu", "Xubuntu is made for lower-end hardware",
"XFCE 4.6 and upwards". These are a few ideas. This is for the USERS,
not the inside group. UDS and Ubuntu Developers Week take care of
insiders. Is there anything we want to tell the world? 

How do we get more people involved in Xubuntu without showcasing some
of it? I am not the best person to run a presentation. That does not
mean I won't. I can't do it alone, though. We have a whole week here to
"show and tell". Are we just going to let it go by without being
involved?
