The foundations of the Hungarian Ubuntu local community were laid in December 2005, when the first version of the ubuntu.hu homepage was launched by two volunteers. It was a collaboration centric site with a wiki and a forum. People started to show up and contribute. Some members met in person in March 2006 first, while the registrations and contributions were growing steadily. We decided to organize a conference for users. With the help of Canonical, it was a huge success. The conference was a great opportunity to bring all the people together who wanted to contribute. The real local community was formed back then. Since then, we've been involved in a lot of things, like promoting Ubuntu at various festivals, organizing translation sprints, release parties, and other events for our local community. == Key Details == * '''Date''' - September 30, 2008 * '''Team Contact''' - Szilveszter Farkas * '''Membership''' - 40 active people as of September 30, 2008 (6000 users registered on the homepage, and 300 on the mailing list) * '''Mailing List''' - ubuntu-hu on lists.ubuntu.com * '''IRC''' - #ubuntu-hu on Freenode == Roadmap == Here you should provide a list of things you plan on doing.
