Ubuntu Open Week continues through Saturday
Nov. 29, 2006

UK-based Canonical Ltd, parent of the popular Ubuntu Linux family, is currently hosting Ubuntu Open Week, which began Monday and continues through Saturday. Open Week consists of a series of free workshops and discussions being held via Internet relay chat (IRC) with Ubuntu developers and managers.

Canonical is holding the online workshops, a spokesperson said, so people can:
  • learn about the Ubuntu landscape
  • talk to some of the key developers from the Ubuntu project, including Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth
  • find out about the community and its relationship with Canonical
The discussions are in one-hour sessions and can be accessed on irc.freenode.net. Users must already have installed an IRC client to participate.

Topics include: The Ubuntu Bug Squad; Patching Packages; Maintaining an Ubuntu Package; and others.
