[[Anchor(talks)]]
== Talks ==

 * NaamanCampbell: UbuntuOnSunRay presentation - attachment:Presentations/ubuntuonsunray.odp - presented at [http://www.humbug.org.au HUMBUG] to promote the use of Ubuntu on SunRay thin-clients, more info in [http://greenmidgetcafe.blogspot.com/2006/03/odp-open-source-demonstration.html blog].

== Logo ==

The current ubuntu-au logo was decided upon at the [wiki:AustralianTeam/Meetings/2006Apr04 April 4 meeting]. Designs, submissions and thoughts for the logo can be viewed on [wiki:AustralianTeam/Logo the Logo page]. Logo #7 was chosen as the official Ubuntu-au logo.

== Local CD distribution ==

The 32 bit PC version of Ubuntu 6.06 "Dapper Drake" can be found on the cover of the latest edition of Australian Personal Computer Magazine. Thanks to APC for making this possible

We are also currently trialling an Australian free mailout of Ubuntu install and live CDs. If you would like an official Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger" CD pack, containing both a Live and an Install CD, please send an email to our distributor:

Peter Baker: [[MailTo(sydneypete@gmail.com)]]

Standard (32-bit) PC, 64-bit PC and Macintosh PPC are versions available; please specify. Currently, we are only able to send one CD pack per recipient; for greater quantities, please use [https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ the Shipit service]. Please be patient; we're volunteers!

Many thanks to Canonical's ShipIt service for making these CD packs available to us. Please note that we are currently waiting on the arrival of Ubuntu 6.06 LTS CDs so there will be a delay for the moment.

Share the love!

== Customising Ubuntu ==

Our [http://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocalCustomisation/Australia Customisation] page describes ways to customise Ubuntu for Australian conditions. Also see our local apt mirrors page - [:/LocalAptMirrors:LocalAptMirrors]
