There has been talk about a Gutsy release party already, but I haven't seen it on the team forums yet. We are looking for places we can hold this meeting and ideas. Gutsy will be released on a Thursday, so there may be some debate on which day to meet up. Jono has set up a few resources for the LoCos already. Take a look at: Running a Release Party (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingCommunity/RunningReleaseParty)
We have several things we should consider:
Who: I'd like a show of hands for those who would like to attend.
What: Demos, food, drinks, installs? What else?
Where: We need to narrow the location or utilize multiple release parties in the state.
When: Start time and end time.
Who - It doesn't matter where you are located, we can figure out the location(s) once we know who is going to attend. Another option may be to hold multiple locations for the release. If you want to be there, just give the word. We can also arrange car-pooling if the need should present itself. The team has expanded quite a bit from the first meet'n'greet we held at Matt's house, let's see who else would be interested. We can grab some pictures and finally add them to our gallery!
What - At the release party, what do you guys want to do... One suggestion was to hold a demo of the new features in Gutsy or highlight some of the new applications. Food, drink, and conversations will be considered mandatory. In all, it will be a good time to kick back and relax.
Where - Suggestions are needed here. If you have an idea for a place, definitely note what the average cost would be and how long everyone could hang out.
When - The time will need to be hammered out once the location is set in stone.
The Gutsy Release Party (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MissouriTeam/Events/GutsyGibbonReleaseParty) Wiki page is already up. We can add more information to it as the discussion progresses.
