Welcome

This is the wiki page of the Kentucky Local Community Team. We aim to provide community support to users of the various flavours of Ubuntu Linux as well as other distrobutions and advocating their use by individuals and organizations alike.

Who is this group for?

This group is for anyone in Kentucky who uses or is interested in some flavor of Ubuntu, whether it's Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu or any others, including other distros. This group is for people of all technical abilities from I've-never-heard-of-linux all the way to I'm-an-Ubuntu-Master.

Aims

  • To provide consultancy and tutor services to new users.
  • To distribute Ubuntu CDs to businesses, schools, institutions, organisations and individuals.
  • To develop an Ubuntu identity.
  • To develop a local community developer.
  • To advocate free and open source solutions (FOSS) as alternatives where they exist.

Team Projects

How do I join?

Come and chat in our Internet Relay Chatroom (IRC) #ubuntu-ky (it's on irc.freenode.net). You can also go to the forum located at http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org and post a question or read about some of stuff we are planning. You can also sign up to be on our mailing list at https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-ky. Join the team by going to https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-ky and clicking "Join the Team" on on the left of the screen.

Meetings

We meet each Thursday night at 8:00PM EST in #ubuntu-ky on freenode.net. We will also be having "Real world meetings" soon but the time, date and place has yet to be decided upon. Meeting notes found here [:KentuckyTeam/Meetings:Meetings]

How Ubuntu-ky Can Help You

Are you stuck with something? Can't find the answer? Login to our IRC channel and we'll do our best to help out. If your problem needs to be solved in person, a volunteer will offer to help. Alternatively, if you want to talk to a wider audience about Ubuntu, Linux and FOSS - feel free to post in the forum.

How You Can Help Ubuntu-ky

By joining the team! Merely joining and participating would be help enough. Having a steady number of members is encouraging to all in the group. Let us know how we are doing as a team or if there is anything that we are not currently doing that you have a need for.
