Hi all, monthly notice, Sept 7,

Tomorrow night is the Sydenham Freenix* workshop, 7.30pm-9.30pm (first
Wednesday of each month, February to December), at the South Learning
Centre <http://www.library.christchurch.org.nz/South/>, through rear 
door of South Christchurch Library, 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere.

We use the 33-computer suite of i5s and overhead projector there, for
BYO liveCD or thumbdrive distro show & tell and knowledge exchange:
a troubleshooting workshop & monthly FOSS industry discussion. Notebooks 
and handheld demo systems welcome. GNU/Linux Ubuntu, Mint etc Debian 
variants, releases 12.04-16.04 esp. Long Term Support, are the main 
distros displayed on the lab machines, but all *nix distributions are of 
interest. If you require a distro DVD or CD burnt you can request it 
there or by off-list reply please.

Workshop is a chance to meet other *nix users, have installation
questions answered & resolved, offer a technical presentation, trade 
on-line security tips, hear updates and industry news and have FUN.

This month is planning and implementation for SFD16:
