Happy 10th anniversary to Ask Ubuntu!

Question

Ask Ubuntu was launched on 10/10/2010, so it's now just about 10 years old!

To celebrate we are running some workshops / lessons in chat. So far this is the schedule:

I will add any other celebration events to this post.

If you are organising an event, you may like to post an answer here to describe what you are doing and allow people to engage in comments. You could also make another meta question. If your event only needs to be a meta post (like some of the ideas posted on How should we celebrate 10 years of Ask Ubuntu?), go ahead and post your meta post and I'll add a link to it here. If you need any kind of help organising or getting involved, you can comment, ping me in chat, make a new meta post, or employ whatever alternative strategy appeals to you :)

Thanks to Catija for organising the banner! Catija also mentioned that she has some Stack Overflow stickers to send to people giving lessons :D

Not an event, just a look back on how the site design changed over the time.
