I have been thinking about this for a long time, how do we promote Ubuntu in Singapore, or even generally South East Asia?
Since ubuntu-sg is the official loco team for the country, I guess this is the appropriate channel to ask. However, seeing the activities here, I cant help but feel sorry that there are just not much being done, or rather not much interest in pursuing this direction.
Feel free to correct me, please.
How to promote Ubuntu in
Its not that there is no interest , its rather there is no time. We have had plenty of meetings and proposals but we need people to commit to them on consistent basis and that has been the major roadblock for nearly all of the Open Source groups in Singapore.
As for Ubuntu-sg not being active , it depends on how you look at it. Linux groups have not been active since turn of the century , if you been following LUGS over the years. On individual level , there are definitely active members. To give you an example , I was from NP LUGS exco team , then moved on to become LUGS exco and started Ubuntu-sg and now FOSA exco member. Thats roughly the same for most members of Ubuntu-sg. We belong to more than 1 group.
So if you have ideas and would like to propose them , pls do come down to FOSA/LUGS/Ubuntu-sg meetings , there will be a SLMG soon so you could come down there. Or email to the respective mailing lists. Most of us are in all 3 of them.
