Hello everyone.

I have just joined the Nebraska Ubuntu group and wish to introduce myself.  

launchpad homepage:

https://launchpad.net/~mmicekfremontubuntu

I have been working with Ubuntu and Open Source for several years. It has been rather lonely in the Fremont area!  It is good to get involved in some way and to hear there are others in the area! I really do not have a lot free time any more. However, I would like to help in any way I can.

When the opportunity presents itself, I have been setting up and promoting Ubuntu systems in the Fremont area. Not many though.  I do build my own systems and I am able to provide some hardware support.  

Sincerely,

Matt M.

Hi Matt, 
Welcome aboard!  I don't know if you were on the list earlier this week, but 
we've got a release party scheduled for May 3rd, and we're helping OLUG with 
their installfest on May 17th.   I'll have info on the Wiki page later today. 

Could you put up a couple of flyers for me if I emailed them to you?  If you 
are interested, please send me you address off-list to 
[email-masked]. 

Other things you could do to help:
-Help out with the 5-A-Day Project(1)
-Help us do a "Demo Day" in Fremont
-Ask other users you've helped to join our mailing list and irc channel
-Put Ubuntu Nebraska Loco Team on your forum signature, so others will be able 
to find us. 
-Help maintain the wiki
-Moderate our Forum pages (coming soon)

Great.  I hope to see you in our irc channel at #ubuntu-us-ne on freenode and 
maybe see you at an event next month.
