Ucubed, running & helicopters
Mar 17, 2011 (about 1 year ago)
I will not be attending Ucubed, but I wish I was. If you are at all interested in Debian or Ubuntu and their derivative projects, such as CrunchBang, then Ucubed is the unconference for you!
The unconference is being held on the 2nd of April 2011 at Madlab in Manchester, which looks like a fantastic venue. Tickets are free [yes, you read that correctly], but there are limited numbers.
Anyhow, here is a list of what I will be missing out on:
- Dan Lynch’s Keynote
- Les Pounder’s “Aubergine is not the only colour” - A look at other Debian based distributions
- Anna Morris’ Okay Computer – A workshop in Free Software Philosophy and Ubuntu
- Charlie Owen’s Whistlestop Tour of Ubuntu
- Plus various other workshops, talks and discussions
Sad face.
I will not be attending Ucubed because I will supporting Becky as she attempts to run 10 kilometres around the city of Lincoln — rather her than me. Becky has been training really hard for the event and I am super proud of her. She is running to raise funds for our local Air Ambulance service, which is cool, because she is doing it for charity, and because helicopters rule!
Happy face.

Thank you for your kind words and support - after all these years married to you, I deserve it! :D

In related news I’m happy to see the site in stylish b/w again. :)

Good luck, Becky!
She would probably do the run in a #! shirt if you got her one Corenominal! ;)

Thanks for the plug :)
It’s a real shame that you can’t make it, but it’d be even more of a shame if you weren’t there to support Becky… in fact, it’s a shame that we can’t get live streaming at the UCubed event of Becky running…. :D
Maybe if we sort the date out far enough in advance for the next UCubed, Becky could try to avoid booking runs for that date, and you could be there and stun us all with your amazing feats of daring do!
Maybe Becky could come and give us a talk on being a Community Manager? :D
I hope Becky does great and that you’re all doing well!
