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! | The following groups around the USA have managed to rearrange my schedule through petition power! I'll be visiting all of them on my way from Canada to Mexico. Come along if you're nearby! |
