I work for the county Library and I'm working very hard to bring open source software to the Library and create a greater amount of use in the county. I can talk to you about the local area and tell you what is happening with the LUG as well as the open source talent we have at the county. Maybe you're the person to get LUG kicked off again. You can reach me at 223-0839.

Can anyone give me a little info? Does Reno have much of an open source community? Is there a Reno LUG? Things of that nature. By the way, I am an Inkscape Developer, so if there is a local LUG or other forms of Open Source groups, I would be more than happy to do presentations and Q & A sessions. If there isn't much of an organized scene at this point, I would be more than happy to work with the community to see what we could do to build it up!

As you can see from the archives there is very little Ubuntu activity visible on the mail list. There are quite a few LUGs near me in the San Francisco Bay Area but it's quite a drive from where you are. The Davis LUG and Sacramento LUG would be closer but still pretty far. If you are able to make any visits to the San Francisco region I can introduce you to quite a few LUGs that are in need of speakers. Please post to this mail list whatever you are able to find about Reno region and/or Nevada open source activities. If I can somehow be of help or if you just want to chat, feel free to email me. You are also welcome to join the California Team's or other LoCo IRC meetings. We don't bite. Our next team IRC meeting is in #ubuntu-california on freenode.net this Sunday at 7 PM PDT. Other US team meetings are posted on the Fridge's calendar. Cheers, Grant Bowman https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam On Thu, Sep 3, 2009 at 12:03 PM, Joshua A.

I've been on the lvlug at lvlug.org mail list since February getting a feel for the group's activities. While I don't get to Nevada https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NevadaTeam as often as I would like I am interested in attending a meeting sometime. As many of you are probably aware, Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx is about to be released on April 29th, 2010. The Long Term Support versions come every two years. This picture helps explain it better than words can. http://www.ubuntu.com/products/ubuntu/release-cycle Many activities take place around each release. Global Jam https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGlobalJam activities just wrapped up and release party planning is under way. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReleaseParty Ubuntu Open Week is an IRC event in #ubuntu-classroom on Freenode designed to give people a way to learn more about Ubuntu and is being planned right now. This will take place during the week of Mon, May 3 - Fri, May 7, 2010. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek My personal participation focuses on the California Team and local linux user groups in the San Francisco Bay Area but all Local Communities (LoCo as Ubuntu calls them) share interests. So I am pleased to be able to participate here and extend an invitation to visit our LoCo if you are curious. I have copied this email to our California mail list. I am happy to participate and do what I can to help out and support all efforts of the existing Las Vegas team and those willing and able to step forward in Nevada (and else where) to organize events, large and small. Planning an event is less difficult than it sounds. This would be an especially good time to take a look if you have any interest at all.
