Welcome to the Ubuntu Open Week!

Takes place from Mon 3 May - Fri 7 May on IRC in #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat.

Road test our community

In just four years, Ubuntu has become one of the most popular Linux distributions in the world with millions of users and a thriving community. Ever wondered what all the fuss is about? How have we achieved such a great feat in such a short space of time? Here's where you can find out. Ubuntu Open Week is a week of IRC tuition and Q+A sessions all about getting involved in the rock-and-roll world that is the Ubuntu community. We organise this week for the beginning of a new release cycle to help new contributors get involved.

Ubuntu Open Week is a series of online workshops where you can:

  • learn about the Ubuntu landscape
  • talk to some of the key developers from the Ubuntu project
  • find out about the Community and its relationship with Canonical

  • participate in an open Q&A with Mark Shuttleworth, the founder of Ubuntu

  • Check out our booklet, with the schedule and descriptions of the sessions: UOW-booklet.pdf

Find out more about the Ubuntu Desktop, Server, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Mobile, UNR, and download them.

The Timetable

We organised a week long menu of events that touch many different areas of the Ubuntu community. If you are interested in being a part of the project, there is sure to be a session for you.

Time

Tuesday 1 May

2100 UTC

Ask Mark - Mark Shuttleworth Hosted by DJones
  • Feel free to negotiate and move slots amongst yourselves but please don't move someone without their consent. (Mark is only available on Tuesday so that will be the only session that day. If we run out of session space we'll just add more!)

The schedule is available in iCalendar (ics) format, subscribe to the calendar using Google Calendar or Evolution. Interested in claiming a spare slot? Let JorgeCastro know!

If you use identi.ca, you can subscribe to @udscommunity to be informed whenever a new Open Week is about to begin.

* Note: For help on time equivalents around the world, visit Time and Date World Clock, and specifically for the equivalent of 15:00 UTC see 15:00 UTC around the world.
