I write from Chile (about earthquake)

Ubuntu Community,
As you know, Chile was victim of a devastate earthquake and tsunami. See
my country so destroyed is very shocking and sad.
Until now, almost all the members of Ubuntu Chile were reported alive
with minor material losses, but we have many friends and family who have
lost everything.
I am writing to ask you to keep us in your minds. The Ubuntu community
is more than just people programming, translating and triaging bugs, we
are much more than that, we are hands creating and sharing, now I ask
you to share with us your strength, because we need them.

So please, pray for us, whatever their belief, we need today more than
ever be in the Ubuntu's circle of friends.

Thanks

I can't pray as I'm not religious, but I'll think about you anyway (as
well as about people in Haiti and other places where people suffer).

(Incidentally, the mayor ("alcaldesa") of Concepción is a women from
Belgian descent, and that somehow brings things a _little_ bit closer to
Belgium...)

Cristian,

My heart goes out to all of you!

Please know that you, the Chilean LoCo team and all those who are now
dealing with devastating aftermath of the earthquake and tsunami are
in the hearts and minds of the North Carolina LoCo team. May you all
have the strength, wisdom and courage to make it through each moment
as you face the task of picking up the pieces. May you all feel
encircled by the thoughts, words, actions and compassion of the Ubuntu
Community and that "Circle of Friendship" it represents.

When I learned of the earthquake and saw the damage that you are now
having to repair my heart sank, today when I read your email my eyes
teared up. The Ubuntu Community is in fact as you describe, so much
more than an operating system, it is a circle of friends indeed and
without meeting you, I am as concerned for you and the Chilean LoCo
team as I would be for the LoCo team I belong to here in North
Carolina. As much as we celebrated the success within the Ubuntu
Community, may we also find time to pause and show compassion in times
like this.

You and the whole Chilean LoCo team will be in our thoughts!

Amber

only want to use it. That is a tribute to how good Linux is.

Thank you all.
We know that the devastation does not disappear from one moment to
another, but Chile already are not thinking in the destruction to think
about reconstruction. It will be difficult and will take us years.

Thank you for your words of support, which have been received by our
community.

In Chile this 3 and 4 of March, we are doing a "Telethon" to raise
money. If you would like to make a donation, please visit:

(look for "foreign donations")

Re: Chile (and Haiti) - CrisisCamp

In reply to this post by Cristian Barahona G.

Hi,

We can do more than simply think about, pray for and throw money at. The
past several weeks I've been one of hundreds of volunteers participating in
CrisisCamp Haiti. This past weekend, the DC group (and several others)
morphed into CrisisCamp Haiti/Chile.

The CrisisCamps evolved from BarCamps ("unconferences") for the purpose of
putting techies to work, primarily on FOSS projects to help people on the
ground during crises. In particular, the work done at the camps on the
Open Street Map project has been getting a lot of kudos from search and
rescue teams on the ground in Haiti.

So, see if there's a CrisisCamp near you, and either join or start one.
