This is the Ubuntu New Mexico Team USA. Many of us are in Albuquerque, however, many of us are not. We are statewide and want to reach out to everyone in New Mexico. We have members from Santa Fe to Las Cruces. Our goal is to promote Ubuntu, Open Source Software, and the ideal behind Ubuntu "Humanity to everyone".

News

12/5/07BR Meeting with Sam from EPC, and Eric and David from the New Mexico Ubuntu Loco. This meeting was the initial meeting setting up some exceptions and needs for both organizations. Out of this meeting came a greater understanding of what EPC does, and for EPC let them know what the New Mexico LoCo is all about. In the future the Loco will be setting up a campus network that will include a computer lab, office computers, and dorm room computers, all tied into a centralized network. Sam (the director of EPC) will be gone till January and this should give the New Mexico LoCo ample time to better organize our support structure.
