Roadmap

Here you should provide a list of things you plan on doing. Include links to where these are discussed online and on mailing lists.

  • Sub-Teams: Created sub-teams dedicated to specific team tasks, including new user support, website design and support, wiki pages, intra-team communication, and new user support and education.

  • Collaboration with LUGs: Contact Georgia LUGs and user groups to coordinate joint events emphasizing an adoption of Ubuntu as the desktop and/or server environment of choice. We have already begun this process with the [http://www.freeitathens.org/ Free IT Athens], [http://www.uga.edu/chugalug/ CHUGALUG], and [http://www.mgalug.org/ Middle Georgia LUG].

  • Civic/Community Advocacy Change this to refer to the Ubuntu boxes somehow: Contact local school boards, governments, universities, and public libraries to foster adoption of Ubuntu as a viable alternative to less secure, more costly operating systems including proposing partnerships to aid in the distribution of media.

    • So far we have made contact with two schools about adopting Ubuntu in their computer labs.
