Re: [ubuntu-florida] wow! 4000 at the french ubuntu release party

 

Umer (and North Florida), the Florida Linux Show in Jacksonville is
coming up on March 9.  Hopefully you can make it to the show and stop
by our table to say hello.  We'll also be getting together just for
fun (someplace) on Sunday night.  We'll be adding details here:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FloridaTeam/Projects/FloridaLinuxShow-2009J

So watch that page and watch the mailing list.  We can talk further
about Jaunty release parties at that time.  Hope to see you.
