Welcome!

All are welcome to participate. We are an Ubuntu focused Linux User/Advocacy Group.

The Oregon team is just getting started. If you are interested in learning more please consider joining our Team Mailing list and the forums. Our team IRC channel is #ubuntu-us-or on the irc.freenode.net servers.

What's Happening

• The Community Leadership Summit is taking place July 17-18th in Portland. It brings together community leaders, organizers and managers and the projects and organizations that are interested in growing and empowering a strong community. CLS was conceived by Jono Bacon, the community manager for the global Ubuntu community.

• OSCON Takes place July 19th-23rd. Hundreds of sessions, tutorials, activities, and other events will happen here. We will be sharing a table with Washington and California in the Expo Hall.

Goals

• Spread Ubuntu Linux through out the state of Oregon
• Provide assistance with migrating, installing, configuring and using Ubuntu
• Promote the Ubuntu Certification

• Work with other groups such as PLUG and Free Geek to improve peoples computing experience by increasing awareness as well as improving software and documentation

How to Join

As we look forward to any contributions you can make, the team has taken a little extra time to gather the information to help you get started. We ask that everyone who would like to be a member of the Oregon Team read the latest version of the Code of Conduct (CoC) then sign sign the agreement before joining.

We ask that you seal the deal so to speak because the CoC is the foundation of Ubuntu development. Signing the CoC does means that you will have to register with Launchpad and create an account and generate and upload a GnuPG key. Think of Launchpad is the vehicle used by Ubuntu to track and collaborate on projects.

Please contact a team member if you need additional assistance signing the CoC; the IRC channel (#ubuntu-us-or) is a good place to look.

Now you need to Login to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserPreferences using your Launchpad username and password. Fill out the User Preferences with the desired information. Don’t forget to add OregonTeam to the Subscribed wiki pages list then click Save.

Join our team's mailing list by visiting https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-or
