Hi, my names Ben Duivesteyn and I am writing on behalf of the Ubuntu Australian Local Team.

We would like to request if you could feature the latest version of Ubuntu 6.06 'Dapper Drake' on an upcoming cover dvd.

I'm sure you have heard all about it so i need not talk about how wonderful it is.

I'd also like to suggest helping the Ubuntu Australia Team grow by possibly making a small comment about the Australian Group. We are currently have around 43 members.

Things the Australian team are involved with:

  • The distributing, advertising and demonstrating Ubuntu within Australia
  • Promoting Ubuntu and Open Source, specifically in Homes/Schools/Businesses
  • Presenting presentations to the wider linux/opensource community
  • Having release parties on Milestone update

There is always a constant conversation going on in our own irc channel at #ubuntu-au on irc.freenode.net, and this is a primary way to receive/give help with ubuntu issues in general.

We have a communty site at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam and http://ubuntu.com.au, and you can see where our users live at http://www.frappr.com/UbuntuAustralianTeam.

If you could only write a small article, we would really appreciate the website and the irc channel published.

On behalf of the Australian Local Team I would like to thank you for taking the time to read this, and look forward to seeing Ubuntu 6.06 on the cover of your next Issue.

--- Ben Duivesteyn Member of Ubuntu LoCo Team Australia
