Event Types

Install Fests

Install fests are events where people can bring their computer to the event and have Ubuntu installed. In most cases these types of events are done in conjunction with other local groups and businesses that can provide facilities conducive to installing Ubuntu on large numbers of computers. The goal is to pair an inexperienced or new user with an 'expert' or experienced user.

Demonstrations

Demonstrations are events which feature demonstrations of new features, new software or specific tasks that can be accomplished using Ubuntu

Classes

Classes are usually attached to community centers and recreation departments. They can involve multiple or single sessions based on the depth of the topic being covered. The instructors are NYS Team members and the students come from the local communities. The intent is to increase the exposure of FOSS, GNU\Linux and Ubuntu.
