Florida Linux Show
The Ubuntu Florida LoCo team took part in the just completed Florida Linux Show. It was a great time. We had a Face-to-Face social meetup on Sunday night before the show, and later that night hooked up with Josh, Eric, and Joel from the Georgia LoCo team.
After a few beers and some insights into the challenges of osx and vista, we declared the first, semi-unofficial, Georgia-Florida Dual LoCo Meetup a huge success.
8am Monday is tough after a night out with the with the Georgia and Florida guys, but we made it in, laid out the swag, and immediately saw a steady stream of visitors to the booth. We signed up some new members, helped out some people with installs, learned some things, and generally had a really great time. Thanks to Josh from the Georgia team for the CDs and case badges. Thanks to Canonical for the conference pack. Thanks to Rod for putting on a great show. Most of all, thanks to the Florida LoCo team, who had a great turnout at the booth and great support from those who couldn’t show.
Dinner/beers with John “Maddog” Hall, the OpenVZ guys, and the organizers capped a great weekend.
Looking forward to next year.

Sounds like you guys had a blast. The California Ubuntu LoCo team just finished up with SCaLE (Southern California Linux Expo) and it was also a great time. Keep up the great work, guys!
