Holiday Give Away 2005

By boredandblogging | Published: 2005-11-25

To continue a tradition started last year, members of the Ubuntu Community have created a Holiday Give Away wiki page. The goal of that effort is to try to provide people with Ubuntu CDs in time for the Holidays in December. Other ideas of things that can be shared within the community are personalized CDs with extra packages not usually found on the official CDs, and unwanted hardware looking for a new home.

azz from the forum explains how he started the project:

Last year, I offered to send out Ubuntu CDs to people who had not ordered through shipit early enough to receive them before the holidays. People answered and I sent some out. This year, I would like to do that again.

Visit the page to submit your name and how many CDs you can send to fellow Ubunteros in need.

Bug Day returns

By boredandblogging | Published: 2005-11-21

Daniel Holbach sent out a reminder that this Thursday, November 24nd is the next Bug Day. This is a day where volunteers trudge through the bugs filed by users and make sure they get assigned to the right teams. Bug Day is a great learning experience if you want to learn how to get involved in Quality Assurance testing and squishing defects in the upcoming release. Anyone with time and a browser can contribute, even one triaged bug can help stem the tide, so don’t be discouraged if you’ve never done it before.

Make a difference: join the Bug Day on November, 24nd. We will be in #ubuntu-bugs (Freenode) all day and night, and will be ready to answer your questions about how to help.

As always, we recommend you learn how to help with bugs before heading over to #ubuntu-bugs on irc.freenode.net. How to report Bugs effectively is also a good place to start if you like to report bugs.

Correction: The proper date is the 24th, article has been corrected.
