This is done through CD Distribution, Team expansion, user-base support, and outreach programs. The Colorado Local Community Team is '''not''' meant to replace our local LUGS but rather enhance their overall experience by having a dedicated place to discuss, contribute, and gain support from local Ubuntu users. While we were not the first Local Community Team in the USA, we were the first to complete the official process and become fully recognized by the Ubuntu [http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/council Community Council]. We also share a close link with the [wiki:ChicagoTeam Chicago Team]. == Joining == attachment:IconsPage/IconAutorization.png If you are interested in joining our team please apply on our [https://launchpad.net/people/coloradoteam/ Launchpad page] and then subscribe to the mailing list below. All that is required is residency in or near Colorado and a desire to see Ubuntu grow. Members must sign the Ubuntu [http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/conduct/ Code of Conduct]. We encourage members to do this via Launchpad. == What We Do == * Educate the public about Ubuntu * Supply Ubuntu (CDs & CD images) * Support Ubuntu Locally * Conduct outreach programs * Ubuntu Activism == Community Resources == * '''Launch Pad''': [https://launchpad.net/people/coloradoteam Colorado Team LaunchPad Entry] - Please sign-in here. * '''Mailing list''': [http://lists.coloco.ubuntu-rocks.org/listinfo.cgi/coloco-coloco.ubuntu-rocks.org mailing list] * '''Website''': [http://coloco.ubuntu-rocks.org/ http://coloco.ubuntu-rocks.org/] (looking for a webmaster to maintain - contact Joey) * '''IRC Channel''': * Primary: irc://irc.freenode.net/#ubuntu-colorado * Secondary: irc://irc.oftc.net/#ubuntu-colorado * ''irc urls should be a hot link (see [http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/IrcLinks] and [http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/HelpOnConfiguration]).'' * '''Local Ubuntu mirror''': provided by our good friends at [http://tummy.com Tummy.com] * substitute {{{http://mirrors.tummy.com/mirrors/ftp.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu}}} for {{{http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/}}} and {{{http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/}}} in etc/apt/sources.list. |
