Given the developments with Ubuntu it is time to reconfirm presenters to the universities. See original email below. Volunteers who confirmed are Moeen Alinaghian and Suresh Balasubramanian (both for Ajman subregion --> Ajman University of Science and Technology). There are still 7 subregions to be covered: please volunteer with the subregion you will cover (more than 1 person can cover the same subregion). Can I assume that:
-Abdulrehman you'll cover Garhoud? -Dirk - Sheikh Zayed Road (your AUD "friend") -Akshay Sharjah (includes Etisalat college) By the way I AM volunteering myself, just staying till the end to cover a subregion that no one else can cover! Once all the volunteers & cds are in place I will connect you with the right contacts at the universities to schedule your visit. Others who are unable/unwilling to actually present should volutneer for tasks **2** and **3**. Task 2 (we noted puppy minidistro, if some form of ubuntu can run on HW that old then it would make Dan's malcolm happy that we are DOING something with the cds not just giving them away). Task 3 -- we STILL dont have a powerpoint/Impress to actually present. Regards From: "dubai_lug_acct" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon Aug 29, 2005 10:58 am Subject: Volunteer Tasks for Universities dubai_lug_acct Offline Send Email OK all. Off the top of my head here are some things we need to do for the universities. 2 types of tasks depending on your skillz. *** 1 *** FRONT-LINE IN THE FIELD TASK universities in town we need to target... Near Dubai Autodrome: DMC Garhoud: ECMIT Al-Gusais: DWC, ZU Knowledge Village (UOW, MAHE, BITS, SPJIM, MGU, MSU, SZABIST, BUID) Shk Zd Rd: AGU, AUD Downtown near DCCI: DUC If you are interested in presenting to universities, please pick an area close to you (geographically or heartwise) and *** REPLY *** to me with your choice and mobile No. I will back to you with the Contacts there to schedule when the Lug is ready with a presentation & cds. Obviously more than one lug member can go together to the same universities in a neighborhood, or split up the effort. For those of you who live in Sharjah, you might want to choose one of these instead, or perhaps we can later offload them on ELUG based in Sharjah. Skyline College Troy University Sharjah Campus (previously Sharjah college) Etisalat University College University City Sharjah (AUS + UOS) *** 2 **** TECHIE TASK I have THREE Old computers to Donate away. Pii, P3. All with at least 96 mb RAM, + Monitor & mouse. Any Volunteers to see if they can handle a Linux GUI, and install a minidistro on them eg Puppy?? We can raffle them away to students from universities we demoed to who go on to join the lug. *** 3 *** THE PRESENTATION for schools and universities. Nuff said. ------------------------ Yahoo!
