Hi all, monthly notice, March 7:

Tonight 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.

We use the 33-computer suite & overhead projector there for a liveCD BYO 
distro show & tell mostly, knowledge exchange & tuition. Notebooks are 
the easiest demo systems to bring. Ubuntu is the default distro used and 
available on the lab machines otherwise - lots of spare 11.04.

Technical presentation space - open format for talk offerings. Venue 
familiarisation for http://www.SoftwareFreedomDay.org annual event.

Tonight is a special event: Andrew Sands will present a summary of the 
trends and highlights that he has seen at Linux Conference Australia in 
2011 and 2012. Ref. http://www.linux.org.au/LCA

Workshop is also a chance to meet other *nix users, have installation 
questions answered & resolved, get on-line security tips, etc. $2 
donation usual.

All welcome.

Kind regards,

Rik Tindall
