The Ubuntu LoCo Team consisted of D. Joe (deejoe), Charles (cprofitt), Carl (cws), Landon (slick666), and Don (Ducky). Charles did a presentation on FOSS and 21st century skills highlighting how 21st century skills tie in with open source projects and the open source community. He also spoke about how FOSS software can enable schools to teach to 21st century skills. The group brought over 800 CDs to the event.

When we arrived at 7am we quickly found the location and checked in as vendors. The other vendors there included Apple, Microsoft, Dell, Lenovo and several other 'big name' vendors. Our booth was right next to the Ithaca Free Software Association booth and just around the corner from the Microsoft booth. Just like last year the FOSS booths were one of the most visited booths on the vendor floor.
