Putting ideas together for TennesseeTeam. Try keeping the ideas short and readable, then supplement the ideas with additional facts in a bullet list. Be positive when responding to ideas, because we want to encourage any and all ideas here. Provide links to wiki and external pages whenever possible.

Feel free to add your ideas below and comment on other people's ideas...

Consolidate (Possibly Regionally) a mass order from Shipit of "Official" copies of the 7.10 Gutsy Release in both the i686 and 64bit versions for distribution and use during install parties. (w4ett)

  • We should really think about the upcoming Gutsy release. It's coming up soon! (desertc)
  • The pressed copies are much more impressive to the public than a burned CD (maybe I need a lightscribe? Smile :) ) I include one Canonical Disk with every PC I sell. (w4ett)

Get Ubuntu install disks into state libraries. (desertc)

  • Talked with Nashville collections manager in July. (desertc)

Get some ideas for those of us in rural areas of the state that can be handled singlehandedly or in a very small group without overwhelming any users. (JohnCub)

  • Currently I simply keep a copy of ubuntu with me and give it to anyone that will take it. It doesn't seem like much but it, at the very least, gets the name out there. (JohnCub)

Set up local sub-teams in the Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville, Chattanooga, and Tri-Cities so members can meet up in the real world.(saxonjf)

  • I also suggest adding Jackson as a regional sub-team...then there will be coverage with approximately 100 miles between each population centre. (w4ett)
  • Getting the ideas brought up from the meetups back onto the wiki or team-wide repository (desertc)

Organize a Nashville 'meetup' (desertc)

  • Send a notice of intention to the team mailing list and posted on the team message board on 10/6 (desertc)
  • Received two replies from people who were interested in attending (desertc)
  • Scheduling for evening of Monday 10/21 or Tuesday 10/22 or Saturday 10/27 (desertc)
