Well on Sunday it actually happened and +- 20 people showed up. I consider that to be pretty awesome.

Highlights

  • Tumbleweed explained basic bug reporting, Debian packaging, translations and gave us a quick demo on building Hello.
  • Almost every one upgraded/reinstalled to Lucid some people even did both
  • Some one made a 3D render animation of Tux (I really need to find out what his name was and if we can get hold of it)
  • Mythbuntu crept into peoples boot screens. See LP bug A fix has since been released
  • Michiel started translating things into Afrikaans
  • I started using xmonad
  • Coke was drunk
  • Pizza’s were eaten (Thanks Clug)
  • Coffee was made (thanks tumbleweed+maia)
  • Milk was spilt
  • And nothing blew up

I wasn’t at the release party but heard the turn out was far great then last year. So well done.

How awesome!

UPDATE:
Since being included on the Ubuntu weekly news letter. I thought it was only fair to link directly to inetpro who’s Wife and Daughter made the cake.

bloemfontein also had a belated release party which nuvolari was so kinds as to organize. They also had a Ubuntu Cake!! Check out his site for pics.

This really was a battle of the cakes. Place your votes now. :)
