Revision 217 as of 2009-04-13 02:49:59

Clear message

Welcome to the Open Week Prep page. The schedule for UbuntuOpenWeek is available: Please add your topic to the schedule after you've talked to JorgeCastro.

  • add topics that you would like to see discussed
  • sign up to run a session

If you want to run a session, add your name and topic. Make sure your topic is:

  • Ubuntu-related
  • "IRC able" - something that can be explained to someone in an hour or less on IRC.

Warning /!\ keep in mind that this is a brainstorming space and we have limited slots on the schedule, so we're looking for a good mix of topics but can't guarantee that everyone will have a slot - remember you can always run a session outside of Open Week in #ubuntu-classroom.

Once the schedule is finalised we will start filling it up on the UbuntuOpenWeek page.

Topics You'd Like to See Covered

  • How to report bugs about Ubuntu
  • How to run LoCo install fests / release parties

Topics You'd Like to Run
