Hey folks, Thought I'd forward on the invite to this weekend's Ubuntu Global Jam in case anyone here was interested and isn't subscribed to ubuntu-us-or. The Global Jam (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGlobalJam) is a coordinated event that brings folks in the community together to help make Ubuntu better, not just developers but contributors of all stripes. And of course, one way to make Ubuntu better is by making Debian better, so I'm planning to spend some time looking through Debian release-critical bugs that apply to both Debian and Ubuntu and seeing about squashing one or two. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
