The Ubuntu Korean LoCo Team has been a very active, fast growing group of people that supports and spreads Ubuntu amongst the Korean speaking community widely. We provide the most valuable, vital information, and share knowledges on Ubuntu in the Korean language.

The Ubuntu Korean LoCo Team has composed of many people with diverse backgrounds and focusing on promoting the use of Ubuntu Linux and the free software philosophy in general. The team is shaping a set of projects that will be assigned to individual workgroups in the near future.

Roadmap

Now Ubuntu Korea Community has became most active community in Linux in Korea.
Since new Korean team council is started, we made effort to make online and offline platform seperately.
And our community is one of the fatest mover link to corporation and university.

 Korean team suggests a new roadmap for next 2 years and next generation team.

We have managed just online and offline part, since now we will approach multiple direction in education, support startups and contents circulation.

1. Education
   1. Study Courses

      Korea community has operated some subjects of studies for last 1 year which can be related to Ubuntu. (Raspberry Pi, Voice recognition, Nodejs, etc.)

      We will operate more various subjects of studies to participate more people who are interested in various fields.

      Purpose of operating studies is making a studying environment which is spontaneous and sustainable.

      Finally people will have an interest in open source and will be able to get more contributors for Ubuntu.

   2. Related to university

      03 / March / 2016 Kookmin university requested to become a partner of '2016 Software-centered university business' as community partner.

      We responded by sending a LOI(letter of intent) and we will help university and their students as course development, capstone design mentoring, co-op education, etc.

   3. Good quality of seminar

      We reduced regular seminar once a month to once every two months. But we invited better speakers who are experts of special parts, evangelists, and heavy user.

      We will keep present speakers' presentation data, Youtube, and live seminar.

2. Support startups
   1. Technical consulting

      Sometimes startups using Ubuntu need technical help on online or offline. We will make a sub rule of Korea Community for official help.

   2. Give a chance to announce technical know-how on seminar

      Startups also need to appeal people how much they have amazing techniques and which part is related to Ubuntu. we can provide a session if they need.

3. Contents circulation
   1. Use facebook page and group

      Each loco teams know we're losing people because of social network services.

   2. Applicate own localized wikipedia and ask platform :
4. Others
   1. Documentization :
