Perhaps that's something we could focus on as a team (or a sub-project)?

When I read the paragraph above I was thinking Welsh/Gaelic but you're spot on - the UK culture is made up of such a mix of communities and backgrounds. As the Ubuntu UK team we want to be making Ubuntu accessible to as many Brits as possible. Does anyone have any knowledge/experience of community-connected work with open-source? Are there any specific selling points of open-source that differ across groups or cultures? What is the competition?
