Welcome
This is the home page for the Australian Ubuntu Local Community Team. We also exist on [https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-au Launchpad].
Overview
Our team focuses on distributing, advertising and demonstrating Ubuntu within Australia. We plan to target schools (Edubuntu), individuals for whom Ubuntu would be an easy switch, and those for who it would not!

Schools
We will start to show schools in the country what Ubuntu can do for a network - unbeatable uptime, responsive services, free as in price, freedom as in contracts (unlike the lock-in contracts that Microsoft offers many schools), and free as in libre. We also plan to demonstrate the power of the LTSP, though perhaps it needs some time to mature.
