I know that there are some Ubuntu fans here on the CALUG list so I
though I would share this with you.

> I want to thank everyone who has responded to my earlier email regarding
> our local community group. The feedback has helped in shaping the
> initial direction of the group. Some indicated a need for hands on help
> or help with basic tasks. There also appeared to be some interest in
> doing an install-fest in the future.
> Several indicated an interest in having meetings virtually and a few
> suggested the weekend.
> Moreover, the total number of respondents was about 6 people out of 150
> people on the mailing list. It is clearly not a mandate, but I am
> pressing on with the believe that if we provide a resource and
> interesting ways to promote Ubuntu others will join us.
> So the first thing is that we have a new website at
> http://ubuntu-maryland.org. It is a work in progress but we can decide
> how we want to use it to promote Ubuntu.
> Secondly, I am proposing that we meet the fourth Saturday of each month
> at noon at my office and virtually via open meeting. Refreshments will
> be available for those who physically attend. Saturday, Mar 30 would be
> our first meeting and I will do a presentation on Ubuntu desktop tips
> and tricks that will focus on versions 12.04 and 12.10.
> Please advise your thoughts on the direction of the group and the
> activities outlined.
> Thanks
