Ubuntu Wiki

Belgian Ubuntu Group

The goal is to create Ubuntu-be, a group of active Ubuntu members in, Belgium. Ubuntu-be will be at least in french and in nederland language. German is also an official language.

EDIT : Ubuntu-XX is only for languages. So you must read "Belgian Ubuntu Group" instead of Ubuntu-be.

Ressources

Mailing list : Ubuntu-be will have one and only one mailing-list. We think only one mailing list is better so we also talk the "other" language from our lovely country. (Ya, Ik moet mijn nederlands verbetern ) This mailing list will not be a helpdesk mailing list.

IRC : The IRC chan will not be a helpdesk chan. We will send people to #ubuntu-fr or to #ubuntu-nl. The IRC chan will be only for administrative purposes. (like #ubuntu-fr-meeting)

Forum : Ubuntu-be will not have any forums or documentation. Instead, we will point to ubuntu-fr, ubuntu-nl, ubuntu-de and ubuntuforums.org. There is no need to divide the effort.

IRL ressources : Ubuntu-be will provide a list of real-life ressources for each "provinces" : LUG, commercial societies that provide support for Ubuntu, ...

press Ubuntu-be will publish press release for all things related to Ubuntu in Belgium. Ubuntu-be will also provide a contact for journalists (in our different languages).

Ubuntu signifie "humanité aux autres". Cela résume en de biens beaux termes tout l'esprit des logiciels ouverts et de linux en particulier. Ubuntu, système d'exploitation stable et efficace vous conviendra au bureau comme à la maison, pour toutes vos applications.
