Ubuntu LoCo Montenegro Team (ubuntu-me)

Welcome to the wiki page for the Ubuntu LoCo Montenegro Team. Started in 2007, Montenegrin Ubuntu users have been active through collaboration with regional Ubuntu and Lunux user groups. Montenegro Ubuntu users have started a Facebook group that has around 100 members. The team streamlined the efforts and focused on building a web site, forum, and wiki, which all started on Sep 17, 2011 on Software Freedom Day.

We aim to provide free community support to users of any of the Ubuntu flavours and derivatives as well as advocating the use of free and open source software to individuals and organizations in Montenegro. We initiated collaboration with University of Montenegro, which resulted in University hosting the Ubuntu 11.10 Release event on 13.10.2011. The plan is to establish a long-term relationship with a synergy capable of motivating other institutions and groups to join in.

Goals

• To spread the Ubuntu's spirit to everyone in Montenegro
• To provide help on how to obtain Ubuntu, create CDs, perform installation
• To educate and provide support to Montenegrin users of Ubuntu and other free and open source software
• To organize events, help new users to start, and increase awareness of benefits and options offered by Ubuntu and other free and open source software
• To get involved in Ubuntu projects such as packaging, localization and documentation
• Strengthen the Ubuntu presence in businesses, education, and government
