Hi all, monthly notice, April 5.

Tonight is the GNU/Linux Users' workshop: 7.30pm-9.30pm in the South 
Learning Centre, through rear door of South Christchurch Library at 66 
Colombo Street, Cashmere: http://www.library.christchurch.org.nz/South/

LiveDVD/thumbdrive installs of freenix* distributions are used to 
demonstrate alternative desktop environments in the SLC computer lab of 
fast i5 Skylakes. Ubuntu-MATE is the Debian GNU/Linux variant most 
usually displayed, Long Term Support releases like 16.04. See 
http://debian.org background and http://ubuntu-mate.org/download/ about 
these.

BYO distributions and technologies welcome; overhead projector - let us 
know if have a presentation to offer.

N.B. This is likely to be the last meeting for at least two months, due 
to timetable competition.

Thank you for all the support shown to this workshop over the years.

Kind regards,

Rik Tindall
