Re: [Ubuntu-waterloo-region] Release party?

 

Lubuntu comes out[1] at the same time as the main Ubuntu release, so
you'll be able to get the .iso on 17 April 2014.  Unfortunately, we
don't get Lubuntu CD/DVDs as part of the LoCo pack (only Desktop and
Server editions), so you'll have to burn your own.

Also, seeing as you're from Guelph, the Guelph Chapter has been known to
hold Release Parties too. /cc: the Guelph list :-)
