Re: Starting new Local Community Team; Northeastern United States, please sign up her
The area I live in is very, very rural in nature, so my distribution goals will be pretty low. 25 Regular CDs, 5 PPC CDs, and 1 64 bit CD.
I have already given out 5 of the regular and 5 of the PPC CDs to co-workers and friends.
On a related note, I work for a label making company.
Last week I got a quote on stickers and magnets. I am going to get some prototypes done and if they are suitable, I'll send a stack of each to all of the team leaders.

Central PA.... Penn State University ....lots of possibilities... :)... I could help as much as I can...

________________________________________________
I would like to set up some new goals for the team and ask for some help here.
As an effective team we need to have effective means of communication between our team members:
1. here in the Ubuntu Forum (I think we should also add each other to our buddy list)
2. which is the best means of conducting our online meetings? IRC, GAIM, on the Chat of our NU Ubuntu Team member map? please let me know which you think is best?
Also I would like to develope a unique team logo, like the Australian local team has done, please submit your ideas here.
I also need help in setting up our Launchpad and wiki, if anybody can help me with the development of this please PM me. I have started the Launchpad site but it is very rough.
We are going to have a great time with this and I am very exciting and look forward to working with everybody here in the "NU Ubuntu Team".
