Roadmap

  • State LUG Collaboration: Contact and pooling of resources with the state LUGs and users groups to promote events to further Ubuntu as a alternative method of computing using desktop, server, and mobile versions.

We plan to further expand our relations with the following: [http://www.lugy.net LUG of Yavapai], [http://www.tfug.org/ tfug(Tucson)], [http://www.aztcs.org/ Tucson Computer Society],and [http://www.flaglug.org/ LUNA(Flagstaff LUG)].

  • State Wide BarCamp: It is our plan to co-host a Open Source Conference in Phoenix in later part of 2008. We are actively advocating with the state LUGs to help in the co-hosting and planning of this event.

    • To date, [http://plug.phoenix.az.us Phoenix LUG(plugaz)] and [http://asulug.org/ ASU LUG] have expressed their interest in working with our team to plan and execute this event. They are also providing contact with some of the other Phoenix LUGs.

    • This is an event that we are in the early stages of planning, but this should help to advocate for Ubuntu, Open Source Education, and serve as a milestone event to help cement relations between our LoCo and the state LUGs.

  • Intrepid Ibex 8.10 Release & Installfests: Planning for the next Ubuntu release, Intrepid Ibex 8.10, using our Hardy Release Party and Installfest experience to improve our success. Areas to concentrate on include location, advertising(print and radio), and flyer distribution.

    • We have already made contact with [http://asulug.org/ ASU LUG]. The president of the LUG is in favor of combining our two installfests into one. The LUG is located on the Arizona State University campus and can offer a central location, dedicated rooms, hard wired internet, and a large pool of students to attract to the event.

  • Local Ubuntu Advocacy: Continue to burn and distributed Ubuntu CDs for release parties, installfests, and for team members to distribute to family, friends, neighbors, etc.
