Ubuntu-related events have been chugging along here in California.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday evening here in San Francisco I had the pleasure of hosting an Ubuntu Hour and Bay Area Debian Dinner. Both events attracted new attendees, which was great to see during December, a month that’s historically pretty quiet for us.<\/p>\n

On Thursday night I joined Professor Sameer Verma over at San Francisco State University where I did a presentation on Open Source for his “Managing Open Source” business school class. Given the audience, I gave the somewhat tongue in cheek title of “Open Source for love, money and fame” to the talk. I fear it was still a bit too technical for some of the students, but there were a number of great questions at the tail end of my talk.<\/p>\n

My somewhat sparse slides from the talk are here: SFSU-2013-open-source-love-money-fame.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n

On Tuesday I’ll be meeting some of my HP colleagues for a couple of days at the office in Sunnyvale, so I thought this would be a great opportunity to host a Mountain View Ubuntu Hour, so I am! 7PM at Red Rock Coffee in Mountain View, details here:<\/p>\n

Looking onward to next year, we have a leadership<\/a> election coming down the pipeline in a few weeks. Richard Gaskin is putting together an Ubucon at SCaLE12x<\/a> in February and we have Philip Ballew heading up efforts for our booth at the conference, details coming together here: CaliforniaTeam\/Projects\/Scale12x<\/a><\/p>\n

Huge thanks to everyone on the team who has been pitching in lately, it’s a pleasure working with all of you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
