[Planning-en] Report from London
Hello, This is a report by proxy for the London SFD celebrations. I organised the event but was called abroad by work earlier this week so I was lucky to have some very capable friends in the Greater London LUG to take it over. The "advocacy walk" from Regents Park to Tottenham Court Road was attended by 20 people who distributed around 300 leaflets and I'm not sure how many Ubuntu CDs. The meeting in Westminster University was attended by 59 people and had speakers from Ubuntu, Red Hat and GLLUG. The meeting has apparently just finished and moved to the pub. You know.... If I had planned it properly I could have attended both the Milan and London celebrations... Would that have been a first? Attending celebrations in 2 countrys? Photos and blog reports to follow. Have a good one ~sm
