IT'S OFFICIAL!!! - Hull LUG are hosting an Ubuntu Release Party to celebrate the release of Ubuntu 9.10 'Karmic Koala'!
The first full announcement was on William Wright's Monday Night Tech Spot BBC Radio Lincolnshire, when I was interviewed live on-air about the party, Hull LUG, Linux, and a whole host of things that I wasn't expecting to be talking about!!!
Anyway the nitty-gritty is that Hull LUG are hosting what, to date is only the 2nd Ubuntu Release Party to be held in the UK outside London, and we are (rightly) very proud and
very excited about it. It is to be held in Hull LUGs regular meeting place, the Old Grey Mare on Cottingham Road, Hull from 1pm on Saturday 31st October.
We are gathering a number of machines, to show off the capabilities of Ubuntu, as well as doing a live install on an old Pentium 4 PC to show how compatible this Linux operating system is with even older hardware. As was mentioned in the show, another operating system is being released the week before, but Hull LUG will show how Open Source and Linux could be a much better and much more satisfying alternative.
