I already know of one company that is looking at Dapper as a replacement for XP, (this decision based off of one convert in the company). We support and connect users throughout the Chicagoland area, and our [[LoCoTeams|LoCo Team]] is one of the [[USTeams]]. Together we utilize the structure, standards, and tools created by the various teams within the Ubuntu community as a means to further our involvement with Free Software, and to support users in our community. The Chicago Team operates in accordance to the [[https://launchpad.net/codeofconduct/1.0.1|Ubuntu Code of Conduct]].
