Congratulations! You've found the official site
of the Ubuntu Vancouver Local Community.
There is a PARTY coming! See below...

Introduction

Our goal is to be the largest, most successful and respected Ubuntu community in the world. You can help make that happen.

Ubuntu Vancouver was launched in April 2008, mostly to organize a Hardy Heron release party. Since then we have decided to:

  • Educate - Organize and present courses about Ubuntu, Open Source Software, and GNU/Linux
  • Advocate - Spread the word in the lower mainland
  • Party - Whenever we can find an excuse (which is often)

Contact

For questions about Ubuntu Vancouver or to be added to the Ubuntu Vancouver email list please email Kim Kulak, our group's Founder. All members are strongly encouraged to join the list.

To post a message to our official email list send to UbuntuVancouver.

We have an official Meetup group at: http://www.meetup.com/ubuntuvancouver
Though it's not strictly necessary, you are encouraged to join there too as it helps us plan and size our events.

We are also on identi.ca (It's like Twitter but better.) http://identi.ca/group/ubuntuvancouver
Though it's not strictly necessary, you are encouraged to get an account (it's free) and follow !ubuntuvancouver updates and breaking news.

Facebook users can find us there by searching for "Ubuntu Vancouver". Tell your parents, friends, co-workers, and anyone else you know!
