Taking place from Mon 22nd Oct - Sat 27th Oct on IRC in #ubuntu-classroom.

Ubuntu is a freely available, simple to use Linux desktop and server. The 
Ubuntu project has developed a strong reputation for technical excellence and 
a commitment to the free software community, and we are always keen to grow 
and extend our community where possible. Ubuntu does not distinguish between 
different Enterprise and Open versions - we have one single version of 
Ubuntu, and this version is and will always be entirely free. Ubuntu is used 
by over 8 million people and has a worldwide community of volunteers who 
contribute in many different areas such as packaging, documentation, art, 
translations, testing, marketing and more.

In just two years, Ubuntu has become the most popular Linux distribution in 
the world with millions of users and a spot regularly at the top of 
Distrowatch. Ever wondered what all the fuss is about? How we've achieved 
such a great feat in such a short space of time? Here's where you can find 
out.

Ubuntu Open Week is a series of online workshops where you can:

    * learn about the Ubuntu landscape
    * talk to some of the key developers from the Ubuntu project
    * find out about the Community and its relationship with Canonical
    * participate in an open Q&A with Mark Shuttleworth, the founder of Ubuntu
    * much more...
