Hi all, monthly notice, June 1:

Tomorrow is the Sydenham Freenix* workshop, 7.30-9.30pm (first Wednesday 
of each month, February to December), at the South Learning Centre 
<http://www.library.christchurch.org.nz/South/>, (rear door) South 
Christchurch Library, 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere.
(Across the road from tonight's 
http://magma.geonet.org.nz/services/quake/kml/2.2/search?externalRef=3522360 
magnitude 3.6)

We use the 33-computer suite & overhead projector there for a liveCD BYO 
distro show & tell, knowledge exchange & tuition. Laptops are the 
easiest demo systems to bring. Ubuntu is the default distro used and 
available on the lab machines otherwise - lots of spare 10.04 LTS disks.

Technical presentation space - open format for talk offerings. Venue 
familiarisation for http://www.SoftwareFreedomDay.org towards which a 
donation is asked. A chance to meet other *nix users, have installation 
questions answered & resolved, get on-line security tips, etc.

This week: review use of Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" / other distros?

All welcome.

Kind regards,

Rik Tindall
