Ubuntu Global Jam Loco - Find Events!
Q1. What is the Global Jam?
A world-wide online and face-to-face event to get people together to fix Ubuntu bugs - we want to get as many people online fixing bugs, having a great time doing so, and putting their brick in the wall for free software. This is not only a great opportunity to really help Ubuntu, but to also get together with other Ubuntu fans to make a difference together, either via your LoCo team, your LUG, other free software group, or just getting people together in your house/apartment to fix bugs and have a great time.
Q2. What exactly things do you do in that period?
Collect bugs, fix them, testing, documenting and translating. Get together and make Ubuntu better.
Q3. Do you meet in a specific place, or just talk on irc?
Both would be great, but it's great to meet in person with other people. You should stop by #ubuntu-locoteams to join in on the action. Also don't forget to microblog with the hashtag #ugj to spread the word!
PS: Check my Loco Link above for events in your area!
Q4. What do we need?
You need a place to be, with decent internet connection, some computers, and great people to share the work. Probably you can find a place in a University, school or even neighbourhood local. Contact your local translation team.
Other Info!
- Use the hash tag #UGJ on twitter to promote and talk about the jam!
- Official Ubuntu Website!
- OMGUbuntu - Great Ubuntu Blog!
- NeoGaf Linux Noob Thread of Linux Noobs!
PS: Some random pics from the Jams around the world from FLickr #UGJ
