[GNUz] Workshop Weds 7.30pm

[Rik Tindall]

Hi all, monthly notice, February 5,

Happy New Year.

Wednesday night 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 of 
South Christchurch Library, 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere.

We use the 33-computer suite of i5s and overhead projector there, for 
BYO thumbdrive or liveCD distro show & tell, knowledge exchange, 
troubleshooting & tuition. Notebooks are the easiest demo systems to 
bring. GNU/Linux Mint, Point Linux and Ubuntu variants, 12.04-13.10, are 
the main distros we currently display on the lab machines. If you 
require a DVD or CD burnt you can request it there or by off-list reply 
please.

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

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

Last year this evening didn't run, because it was Waitangi Day. Now that 
it's the day before, the choice is yours whether to attend or not.

All welcome.

Kind regards,

Rik Tindall
