Challenges
Lack of timely responsiveness & support from the higher ups in the Ubuntu Community.
- Had difficulties in getting support for running booths at events.
- Large geographical region. Hard to plan events that involve as many people as possible.
- Financing for events.
Not a lot of locations that can play host to a group our size. While still providing WiFi, Beer, Food, and Family Env, and be free.
