Ubuntu Community Appreciation Day
The UCADay Spirit
Ubuntu is not just an Operating System, it is a whole community in
which everybody collaborates with everybody to bring to the life a
wonderful Human experience. When you download the iso, burn it,
install it and start to enjoy it, you know that a lot of people made
magnificent efforts to deliver the best Ubuntu OS possible.
For all the effort exerted, for every minute of the year, some gave of
their time talent or treasure. There's the Ubuntu Community
Apreciation Day, when everybody -- whether user, developer, or
non-developer contributor anyone who gives a hand making Ubuntu what
it is today -- everybody takes a moment to thank someone for their
contribution. Every contribution counts! Take time to say, "Thank
you!"
The word Thanks inspires and gives a huge amount of motivation to
encourages people to become even better contributors thus making
Ubuntu and the community even better.
Why?
This day exists to give bonds among Ubuntu Community Parts more
strength and help everybody interacts with everybody else and thus
creates more healthy and Human-friendly space for all of us.
When?
November 20th every year.
Where?
On mailing lists, IRC channels, on phone, face-to-face, etc...
