Reminder: Linux distro release party THIS SATURDAY! Woo!
Posted by Doran Barton on April 30, 2008 in Community, Events, Parties
In case you haven’t heard or read already, Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) was released just a few days ago (April 24). I certainly have noticed plenty of talk about it on blogs and tech news sites. Fedora 9 (Sulphur) was scheduled for release right about now, but the fine folks at the Fedora Project decided they needed a couple more weeks to work out some kinks. In the meantime, there is a fine Fedora 9 Preview release available which can be updated to the official release when it is out (May 13, or so they say).
So what does all this mean? It means it’s time to party like it’s v0.99!
Code Greene, a programming shop located in Salt Lake City, is graciously hosting a release party THIS SATURDAY to celebrate these two latest distribution releases. What?! You’re a OpenSUSE enthusiast? A long-time Slackware user? That’s okay! You can still come and enjoy good food, good company, and fun and games. (Rumor has it these Code Greene people don’t actually do any real work, they just play foosball and videogames all day.)
Here are the vital details:
- Date/time: Saturday, May 3, 6pm to 8pm
- Address: Code Greene, 44 Exchange Place Salt Lake City, UT 84111
Now, if you’re coming, you should take a moment and RSVP via this friendly and easy-to-use Upcoming link.
This release party is being sponsored by us- the Utah Open Source Foundation, the Fedora Project, and Ubuntu Utah.
