Introduction
Welcome to the California Team wiki! Our goal is to advocate Free Software and spread Ubuntu through as many avenues as possible. We also want to bring open-minded individuals together to share, learn and discuss anything and everything related to Ubuntu.
Headlines
We had a booth at the O'Reilly Open Source Convention in San Jose on July 23 & 24th. For more information, and to see pictures and videos from the conference, visit our OSCON project page.
California had successful Jaunty Release Parties! If you'd like to contribute photos from the event, please add them to the release party page or send us a link to them.
We hold meetings every other Sunday in the #ubuntu-california channel on Freenode IRC. Our IRC Meetings page has more information and dates. All interested people are welcome to join us!
Projects
- We're planning to host an Ubuntu Global Jam and release parties for Karmic in October, 2009.
See our Projects page for a list of current and past activities.
Help us put together our page of LUGs and other groups in California!
Join the development on our CD-burning app, 'Buntu Stand.
Goals
Meet with and join up with local LUGs (Linux User Groups), like this one in Silicon Valley, or these around Los Angeles.
Have a presence at conferences and events such as Southern California Linux Expo 2008 and Ubuntu Live.
Advocate, advocate, and advocate!

Current Ubuntu Release
For general Ubuntu information please see www.ubuntu.com or ask in one of Ubuntu's community support areas.
Ubuntu "Jaunty" 9.04 was announced April 23, 2009. Jaunty Release notes contain important information and should be read before upgrading or installing.
The Canonical press releases on the desktop, netbook & server versions have helpful Jaunty overviews. For higher level descriptions, the Canonical Tour of new features, technical overview, Ars Technica's Jaunty review and Tux Radar's Ubuntu History might be interesting.
Ubuntu distributes software created by X.org video and Linux wireless networking projects. Intel video driver users or developers may find this blog post helpful.
