…but we will have another one in six months.
Crazy took all these pictures.
Catalan LoCo Team party at CTUG in the city of Granollers has been fantastic. The mayor of Granollers did the event introductions, that Alex continued. After that, it was presented the migration of Vallgorguina Council to Ubuntu, OpenERP, Jack audio server and Eines TIC, a free software application set for little and medium companies. On the other hand, the workships took place in another space: company servers, Drupal 7, OpenERP, Gimp and recreational robotics. In the end, we all met for a traditional gift draw, this time with material sent by Canonical.
Additionally, the install room was plenty of people nearly at all times.
More than 100 people attended, besides people of Granollers, from places like Barcelona, Lleida or València.
Thank you to all of you for the success of the party, specially to LoCo members, to the speakers (also to David who could not come because he was ill) and to the volunteers at the install party. See you on May at the party at les Borges Blanques!
I just received the Catalan LoCo Team CDs in Barcelona. They look really nice.
Last Saturday we celebrated Software Freedom Day in Barcelona with quite a success. About 60 people got together in order to participate in speeches and i tutorials, and to discuss questions related to free software and free culture.
So, would you like to see some pictures?
Catalan LoCo Team celebrated Ubuntu Global Jam thanks to the folks over at Centre Democràtic i Progressista in Caldes de Montbui, near Barcelona, who kindly offered us their great space to meet up and work, despite in August the venue was officially closed. 10 people turned up over the day and we worked on different areas and helped one another.
I worked on wiki parts, Alex managed to figure out calendars on the wiki and explained bazaar to the audience, Josep toke photos and the others worked on translations as long as the tiny internet connexion worked for all os us. After our pizza lunch, apparently official UGJ lunch, we discussed community matters and relations with Canonical with David Planella.
  
This Saturday Catalan LoCo Team celebrated Ubuntu Global Jam at the UPC in Barcelona. David Planella explained the translations mechanism in Ubuntu and the differences with upstream projects, Alex Muntada managed to stream video and we all passed a good time working on translations and upgrading bugs.

March 27th, the Ubuntu Catalan community celebrates Ubuntu Global Jam at the UPC Campus Nord in Barcelona.
In order to arrive: Campus Nord de l’UPC de Barcelona, building C6 room E101 (access for passage between buildings D6 and C6).
It is a perfect opportunity for learn and help the Ubuntu project.
We will carry on with these activities:
- Speech about translations by David Planella and Translation Marathon.
- Testing Jam: test first Lucid beta in any possible way in order to find functionality bugs, translation bugs or whatever. Could create a virtual machine with the last ISO if you don’t want to install on your daily computer and test it on VirtualBox.
- Upgrade Jam: upgrading to Lucid session from Karmic and Hardy.
By the way, there’s a new event page system on loco.ubuntu.com and this Jam is included.
You can do that too
Never run a Jam in your town? Why not try to start one, even if few people can attend? You can find support in a variety of places, including irc sessions. Most of them have already been done, but you can read the whole sessions online.
What did Catalan LoCo Team this November?
- November 1st: LoCo meeting. Redistribute Barcelona people car wiki for travel to the release party in Lleida. Decide to make a professional poster paid by two LoCo members.

- November 7th: release party Kastanyada Kàrmica.

- November 22nd: meeting with TormodVolden from Swiss LoCo.
- November 28th: act omelette and free software in Caldes de Montbuï.
It’s been crazy. On the top of that, I assisted to a LUG meeting and an install-party on a Thursday. I missed Maemo log weekend in Cornellà, near Barcelona, basically because I needed some rest.
And we have been very late on November Team Report, uploaded today. Sorry for that.
This time, we met in Lleida for a great release party, nearly a hundred attendees, great speeches and tutorials about free software, Mozilla, Gimp, KDE and OpenOffice, a demonstration of freedom devices and a crowded install party.
New shirt, with all Catalan Team release parties on it, for women, men and children.
You all love photos, so here there are a few of them, two sets of photos so far.
 
Happy UDS to all, by the way.
Hi Ubuntu people.
I recently got approved as Ubuntu member so I present myself on Planet Ubuntu.
I’m Catalan LoCo Team Contact since its foundation back in 2006, KDE translator and long term free software activist.
My wiki page and Launchpad profile. Nothing to hide.
Just for the record, Catalan LoCo Team part of Ubuntu Global Jam in Barcelona was greater than expected. BTW, all is already said by incredibly patient and enthusiastic David Planella in his blog.
