Also, if you aren't able to attend UDS-O in person, but want to participate and contribute to the planning discussion; check out the Remote Participation option, which allows users the opportunity to attend without physically being at UDS.

The schedule kicks off Monday morning with an introduction to to UDS by Jono Bacon the Ubuntu Community Manager at Canonical followed by Keynotes from Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Ubuntu, and George Grey, CEO for Linaro.

From the collaborative discussions at UDS-O will come the design and direction for the next release of Ubuntu—Ubuntu 11.10.
