This group's purpose is to help promote and support Ubuntu and Open Source Software throughout the State of Georgia. We are the Ubuntu Georgia Local Community Team (LoCo Team). We promote Ubuntu, Linux, and Open Source in the state of Georgia. We also provide support, free CDs, as well as events for people who want to know more about Ubuntu.

Our Team is governed by a team council, which votes on major LoCo issues. Our team is divided into sub-teams and individuals that perform specific tasks that keep the LoCo running.

Our goal is Ubuntu's ultimate success in Georgia. Our job is only beginning.
