Ubuntu Developer Summit To Be Held Online, More Frequently (OMG Ubuntu)

Ubuntu Developer Summit To Be Held Online, More Frequently (OMG Ubuntu)
[Announcements] Posted Feb 26, 2013 19:02 UTC (Tue) by corbet

The OMG Ubuntu site reports that the well-regarded Ubuntu Developer Summit is being transformed into an online-only event. "In the age of Google+ hangouts and real-time collaboration the notion of flying people around the world to spend a week in each others company seems antiquated and inefficient."

Update: see this announcement from Jono Bacon for more information. "With the fantastic level of interest in the recent phone and tablet announcements, we decided that we couldn’t wait until May to run this new format for UDS, so the first online UDS will be taking place next week from 5th - 6th March 2013 from 4pm UTC - 10pm UTC."
