I think we should stick to one Ubuntu California group hosted at Google with
SVLUG (or on a seperate weekend at the same location). Another nice touch
would be to schedule presentations at the various LUGs evangelizing the OS
-- a good time to do this would be when Ubuntu is nearing a final release.
If this sounds like a possibility, I'd be more than happy to help out.
