The thing about this is that the loco-websites are generally focused on
giving support in non-English languages, and if we want to get a website
going, it is important to figure out what we are actually going to put
on it. It's pretty good to work in the wiki as much as possible, because
all Ubuntu teams work there (see ubuntu-au) and it is a great way of
sharing ideas and keeping track of what everyone is doing. So if we want
a website, we should focus on what it would actually do.

For example, Ubuntu chicago have a very nice site indeed, based on
Drupal (http://chi.ubuntu-us.org/), but in fact it is basically an
alternative to the official Ubuntu website with links to the Chicago
team for people to get into the group and get local help.

Nice idea, although again much of this might overlap with articles which
would be great on the Fridge and shared with the whole international
community.
