The Ubuntu Hour

  • The idea behind Ubuntu Hour is *public*! We are trying to promote Ubuntu to the general public and getting them wondering what else is out there.

How

  • Head over to a public place (like a local coffee shop, etc) where you'll hang out for 1 hr. every week or every other week, you decide.
  • Wear something with the Ubuntu logo or have a visible Ubuntu sticker on your laptop (if you bring one).
  • When/if you show up, you agree to the Ubuntu Code of Conduct.

  • Anyone can start an Ubuntu Hour, anywhere, anytime.
  • Remember this is a social event, be approachable!

Keep it simple. Don't make this "How" section any longer than it needs to be. Just add your Ubuntu Hour below, including location (address+city), day of week + hour, and your name, maybe a link.

Don't forget to document! Let your LoCo know about your event, blog about it, write in a mailing list, or any other way you can.
