The Venezuela Ubuntu LoCo is a growing OPEN community of GNU/Linux users (in head) & free software newbies. The Ubuntu Venezuela Team plans to grow the local ecosystem of individuals, companies, non-profits and governmental and intergovernmental institutions in Iran working (or wanting to work) with Ubuntu. We want to do that by organizing and supporting promotional, educational and community activities.

Spanish is the main language of VenezuelaTeam and we welcome other spanish talking neighbor countries like Colombia, Cuba, El Salvador, Peru, Chile, Republica Dominica and all Latino America using our resources to shape their community.
