This is an invitation to all who will be in or around Montreal, QC, Canada next April 24th. Full party info and details at:
http://www.ubuntu-qc.org/ubuntu-804-invitation
We’ll be partying real hard at St-Sulpice bar and I hear other parties are organizing in Quebec province.
I’d also like to challenge other party organizers, do you think you can have the biggest party out there ? Last time we had close to 200 people in Montreal, this time we are a bit better organized. One specific thing that has helped us a lot is inviting people IN ADVANCE and PERSONALLY 
We welcome all to copy and improve our french and english invitation.
We are also using a Facebook event for RSVPs, local mailing lists and contacting media. We’ve lined up a few sponsors too for swag (and more). Any further ideas ?
PARTY ON!

Intéressante rencontre Ubuntu…
Ce soir, je retourne dans mon ancien quartier pour une soirée de lancement Ubuntu. J’ai habité le Quartier Latin à mon arrivée à Montréal. Même après quinze ans la rue n’a pas beaucoup changé sauf pour certains de ses commerces. L’endroit ou……
Hey man! It’s the St Sulpice, not St Sulpice (from memories a few years back). Besides, “supplice” in French is the kind of extreme suffering you get from being tortured, nothing you want for a release party
Have fun, I wish I could be back there. Montreal is the best place!
Geez, I thought that type would get me more comments… but thanks! Fixed
The Ubuntu 8.04 release party in Montreal is going to set the benchmark in term of release-party-coolness-factor for a long time. Mark my words!
Dude.. can minors ( like 14-15 year olds) go to this bar. Me and my friend want to go. If so, can we get a lift from the West Island? Pointe-Claire??
Thanks
Egor….

No underage access I am afraid… There is an installfest the same day though. See:

i dont understand what is the installfest

J’ai bien aimé ma soirée et j’adore l’installation de Ubuntu. À suivre…
Bon, j’ai manquer le gros party pour 8.04.
Comment ca ete? Ya pas eu trop de hooligans BSD qui ont foutu le bordel j’espere?
I guess I’ll have to catch up for the 8.10 release this fall.
If its still going to be on October 30th, should ge quite a bash smack in Halloween party season time.
And you just know some fanboi will come dressed as a cosmonaut!
Moi, je metterais mon costume de gorille et je crierais “Developers, developers!” comme un debile.
