| As development of a new release of Ubuntu begins, Canonical is sponsoring a week-long developer summit, gathering Ubuntu developers from around the world to help shape and scope the next release of our beloved distribution. The summit is open to the public, but be aware that it's an intense developer-oriented event, and participants should be prepared for hard-core low-level discussion. If you are ready for the challenge, the summit provides a great place to talk to core Ubuntu developers. The summit is '''not a conference''', exhibition or other audience-oriented event, but an opportunity for Ubuntu developers -- who usually collaborate online -- to work together in person on specific tasks. | As development of a new release of Ubuntu began, Canonical sponsored a week-long developer summit, gathering Ubuntu developers from around the world to help shape and scope the next release of our beloved distribution.

| The way it works is pretty simple. Small groups of developers participate in short (45-60 minute) BOF sessions where a single project is discussed, and then document the outcome of the discussion in the form of a written specification.

We're at UTC -800 here on the west coast (PDT just ended last weekend). :) * PeterKorn: I suggest we make Monday a focus day on accessibility (not that accessibility discussion only happen then, but perhaps the bulk of them might happen then) = Pictures from the Summit = |

What: Ubuntu Developer Summit
Where: Google, 1625 Charleston, Building 44 (map), Mountain View, California
When: Sunday 5th to Friday 10th November 2006
As development of a new release of Ubuntu began, Canonical sponsored a week-long developer summit, gathering Ubuntu developers from around the world to help shape and scope the next release of our beloved distribution. The summit was open to the public, but it was not a conference, exhibition or other audience-oriented event. Rather, it was an opportunity for Ubuntu developers -- who usually collaborate online -- to work together in person on specific tasks.
Small groups of developers participated in short (45-60 minute) BOF sessions where a single project was discussed, documenting the outcome of the discussion in a written specification. These specifications will be used for planning the new release of Ubuntu, as described in FeatureSpecifications and TimeBasedReleases.
