These activities are worldwide, because it is the French speaking team, not just the people of France. Many volunteers are active only online and have never participated in our events. One of our goals in the coming years is to further facilitate meetings between members of the community. Countless events concern Ubuntu in France and in French speaking countries without Ubuntu-FR is requested or even informed. == Goals 2017-2018 == * Recruit a full-time employee for recurring tasks, administrative work and communication; * Rent an office in Paris, or even a public place to promote Ubuntu and free software; * Give a new and responsive appearance to ubuntu-fr website (and with a new logo); * Organize a Ubucon Europe with approximatively 10,000 visitors; * Install an Ubuntu Webcafé in at least one more music festival; * Increase the number of events outside of Paris; * Increase gender diversity among the members and especially the Board; * Exceeding the thousand members in the association; * Facilitate meetings between community members. |

The activities are numerous and far exceed the framework of the Ubuntu-fr association. These activities are worldwide, because it is the French speaking team, not just the people of France. Many volunteers are active only online and have never participated in our events. One of our goals in the coming years is to further facilitate meetings between members of the community. Countless events concern Ubuntu in France and in French speaking countries without Ubuntu-FR is requested or even informed.
Goals 2017-2018
- Recruit a full-time employee for recurring tasks, administrative work and communication;
- Rent an office in Paris, or even a public place to promote Ubuntu and free software;
- Give a new and responsive appearance to ubuntu-fr website (and with a new logo);
- Organize a Ubucon Europe with approximatively 10,000 visitors;
- Install an Ubuntu Webcafé in at least one more music festival;
- Increase the number of events outside of Paris;
- Increase gender diversity among the members and especially the Board;
- Exceeding the thousand members in the association;
- Facilitate meetings between community members.
