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

 

Gabriel (and Miami area), the Ubuntu Global Bug Jam in Miami is coming
up on February 21.  Hopefully you can make it to the jam to say hello.
 We'll also be getting together just for fun at Titanic Brewery on
Saturday night.  We'll be adding details here:

Hope to see you out there.
