Yes, I’m going to GUADEC this year, I’m very happy about it and I hope to see a lot of friends there, ok I’ve seen a couple of them during the last Ubuntu Developer Summit at Prague but it’s always great to get together more often to talk, discuss and have a lot of fun, see you guys there!.
Our first meeting is scheduled for 29 May 0000 UTC at #ubuntu-meeting on irc.freenode.net, there’s more information about it on the Fridge and of course on our wiki page. if you haven’t applied for a membership this is probably the right time for do it.
The new release of Ubuntu the Hardy Heron is released, to see what’s new you may want to take a look to the desktop tour, enjoy!
What are you waiting for download it?
Claudio I’ve received the same SPAM from GNUCHILE a couple of days ago, mail in question is available here , if you look to the link at the bottom of it there’s something like “Si desea bloquear su correo para no recibir avisos de ningun tipo, haga click aqui” (If you want to block your email address in order to not receive any news, click here), I was looking to the page and there’s no way to “unsubscribe” your email from that “list” and well i didn’t even subscribe to it in the first place. I have to say that I’m really really disappointed on how the GNUCHILE guys are working, they don’t seem to understand anything. Anyways, can you please stop doing this kind of things? And please unsubscribe me of the cute list of emails to be spammed, kthxbye.
Update: Oscar Valenzuela (Director of GNUCHILE) blogged about it here. They still don’t get it.
Get it while is hot!, Spanish speakers might want to take a look to the “Notas de lanzamiento“
If you read Planet Ubuntu you’ll see a few posts about “5”, the 5 a day initiative it’s a really way to start contributing to Ubuntu and the Free Software in general and I’ve always had the impression that some of GNOME related packages (ie: Anjuta, Banshee, Beagle, etc) at Universe aren’t getting a lot of their bugs triaged, that’s why since a few day ago I’ve started to do “5 a day” on them and I hope to have them in a good state in the short term. By the way as commented on my previous post I’ll be around Lima at the end of next week and it seems to be the perfect time to start doing some 5 with the local people, if you’re interested on it just come by the conference place and let’s do some 5 together!.
Involucrate (Get Involved) that’s the name of the Peruvian conference I’m going next week, Diego Escalante Urrelo invited me to give a couple of talks, as the conference name says it’s a really good place where to talk to people and get more involded on Free Software projects, If you’re close to Lima those days you *have* to go, It’ll be really great
Thanks a *LOT* to the GNOME Foundation for sponsoring the event (my flight included) 🙂
The February 14 th is a very important day for all the lovers and it’s perfect to show how much you love Ubuntu. So do you want a way to express it? Perfect!, the Thursday 14th will be celebrating another Ubuntu Hug Day, this time based on Compiz, you can join us at #ubuntu-bugs (irc.freenode.net) during the whole day in all timezones, more info about it here.
As you may noticed by Jorge’s blog entry, the Ubuntu Desktop Team has uploaded the new shiny Nautilus with gfvs support to Hardy, that’s why the Ubuntu BugSquad will held a Hug Day based on Nautilus the Tuesday 29 January in all timezones.
