Hour
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. If you are a team contact, make sure your event is listed in the LoCo directory.
note: people may want to support Free and Open by using OpenStreetMap for their map locations. (some areas are well supported and others are not)
