This Week's Ubuntu Q & A: Allison Randal

This Week's Ubuntu Q&A Session:

This week's session will be with Allison Randal, Ubuntu Technical Architect at Canonical on Friday, February 18, 2011, at 5:30pm (UTC) in the #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat IRC Channels.

How To Participate:

To participate join the following IRC channels on irc.freenode.net: #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat. Williamson will be presenting and answering questions in the #ubuntu-classroom channel with participants asking the questions and chatting in the #ubuntu-classroom-chat channel. Remember to preface your questions with QUESTION. For example, "QUESTION: What is the primary difference between the Ubuntu Desktop and the Ubuntu Server releases in Ubuntu 11.04? " (without the question marks)

There is a bot in the #ubuntu-classroom-chat channel that knows to pull the questions that are phrased in that format and post them in the #ubuntu-classroom channel.
