Third Tues of each month (details/agenda)

Welcome to the Ubuntu Local Community (LoCo) team project!

With the incredible success of Ubuntu around the world, the LoCo project is here to help groups of Ubuntu fans and enthusiasts work together in regional teams to help advocate, promote, translate, develop and otherwise improve Ubuntu. Our worldwide network of LoCo teams is providing a strong backbone to our already vast and extensive Ubuntu community. Why not go and see the full list of teams!

I want to JOIN a LoCo team! - To join a LoCo team, take a look at the Joining page and get in touch with the contact of the team you want to join.
I want to START a LoCo team! - To start a team, or contribute to one, read the LoCo Team HOWTO!

I Want to Get Involved!!

Outstanding! Hop on over to #ubuntu-locoteams. It's where the LoCo enthusiasts like to hang out. No, you don't have to be a leader, we won't bite, we swear!

It's a great place to chat to other members from different teams, get ideas off them and learn how other teams interact. Why not join and idle and learn from one another.

Encourage your team to join this channel, by adding it to your wiki information on IRC, or in your channel topic also.
