We are celebrating the release of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) scheduled for October 29. Physical and virtual (IRC & other) events are taking place. Each release cycle a number of efforts happen around the release. Globally, UbuntuDeveloperWeek and UbuntuGlobalJam events happen a month or two before and focus on contributing to the release. Parties (listed below) and UbuntuOpenWeek happen near or after the release.

Karmic Global Jam

We are in the planning phases for events at Chapman College in Orange, CA and Northern California.

San Francisco, CA 94103

The 8-bit / Karmic party is being billed as "Data Beez" and performances run from 8-11. We are designating 7-8 as the Installfest, although of course everyone is free to keep installing stuff all night. How about some Linux LAN games? There is going to be some small reasonable cover charge for admission to the show, but anyone who comes to the Installfest with a laptop before 8 gets in free. If you don't have a laptop to bring but you want to volunteer to help with the Installfest, we will also have an RSVP list for volunteers to get in before 8.

Let's promote the hell out of this party to celebrate Linux, check out some top-of-the-line 8-bit music, and bring in a few people to help cover the expenses of bringing this great crew of artists in from NYC and elsewhere.
