Join us to celebrate the launch of Karmic Koala in what will likely be the largest Ubuntu party in Canada, if not the world! Sure, Karmic Koala is a great release, but what's good software without good times?

Food, music, fun, great community, and Koala's... What could be better?

This is the Ubuntu Vancouver LoCo event NOT TO MISS.

    •  Great party!! Thanks to Joe the bingo game was a BIG hit. Most of us didn't really know how to play so it was funny. ...(^.~)... Thanks to everyone who came to celebrating Karmic Koala!! 
    •  I got to meet & talk to some very interested & interesting people: found out that Gimp does everything Adobe does, and then some. Enjoyed good food & goofing off. Thank you Janet, Ami and Randall for setting up the food & drink. Music enhanced the vibe: playing the game got people talking & having fun with the questions. This was a very good time! Also, the reason Randall was wearing oversized glasses is this was a hint to the "spends a lot of time figuring out bugs" question.(Hope I win something for that).

       Awesome! Great to have a purely social event, and really great to see so many new folks.

       It was very nice, thank you. hope to see more of these.

       Learned lots about the great people in this group! More action than the Jaunty party. 
    •  A great party! And who would have thought it possible to have one without computers ;) 
    • Matt Dlutek (+1 guest)
       Met a lot of people who were super friendly! They were super welcoming and willing to answer the questions we had! After a stressful trip there I was not knowing what to expect but it was well worth the trip in the rain!!!! 
    •  Well done party, I really enjoyed the bingo game idea as it got everyone talking to everyone else. Too bad not everyone completed the survey though! I'd attend again. Not everyone seemed to have showed up though, which is kind of ridiculous (seriously, we're Vancouverites, if a bit of rain scares you off from parties, move to Mexico!).
