| Would you like me to visit your local LUG or [:LoCoTeams:Ubuntu LoCo Team]? If you live in a city with a major airport, and can arrange a venue and audience on one of these dates, '''you''' have the chance to rearrange my itinerary in your favour! All you have to do is create a virtual petition of twenty supporters - the more creative the better! You could get twenty of your user group members to post their support on a mailing list thread... You could get twenty friends to blog about it... You could put up a photo of your LoCoTeam in a huge Ubuntu circle... Or you could come up with something even cooler! | == Toronto, Canada: November 7th == |
