Looking to form a Texas LoCo team

cajunaggie · 11:25 PM

Hey there fellow Texans (or "Howdy" if y'all want to be formal),
I was browsing throug the LoCo Team List wiki and found three proposed Texas teams in Houston, Austin, and Dallas, respectively. Unfortunately nobody has a forum or a mailing list. Or anything more than a two-sentence wiki for that matter. They appear to be effectively kaput.

I know certain areas of the Lone Start State aren't the most computer-friendly places you'll ever see

but I think a LoCo team might help, at least in some small way. If nothing else, a Texas LoCo team will give Texas some prescence (did I spell that right?) in the Ubuntu community.

My technical skills are limited, so I'm not much use in that respect. But I am rather good with organizing and finding things. I'd be willing to serve in that capacity.

Thoughts? Comments? Volunteers to be our fearless leader(s)?

I live in the Houston area... but I'm only 14, lol.

That probably kicks me out of the leader position...

George Bush is from Texas, and he's pretty loco!

While slightly amusing, that was neither neccesary nor helpful. Have anything relevant to the thread subject you'd like to say?

I'm in Houston also, but considering Houston is the size of other states and more populated...

Actually he is from Connecticut, not Texas. He just likes to play cowboy like a lot of other yankees that move here.

At least you're willing to join the team. And age isn't neccesarily a disqualifier. I'm barely 20 myself.
