[16:17:57] <desertc> Greetings all! I am a huge Ubuntu promoter within my community. I feel it is especially important to let schools and educators know about the availability. I attend education trade conferences, for example. I am also a fan of the Ubuntu online collaboration tools, and I try being as helpful as possible for several teams. One big interest for me right now is the Ubuntu Students team I co-founded a couple months ago.
