Hi all, monthly notice, September 5:
Tomorrow is the Sydenham Freenix* workshop, 7.30-9.30pm (first Wednesday
of each month, February to December), at the Upper Riccarton Community
Library, 71 Main South Road, Sockburn:
http://christchurchcitylibraries.com/UpperRiccarton/ Sadly, the South
Christchurch Library was shut down recently due to discovered earthquake
risk, so we have meanwhile changed venues.
We use the modern 33-computer suite & overhead projector in these
learning centres for a liveCD BYO distro show & tell, knowledge exchange
& tuition on request. Notebooks are the easiest demo systems to bring.
Ubuntu is the default distro used and available on the lab machines
otherwise - version 12.04 is available, others on request.
This is a technical presentation space, with an open format for any
FOSS-related talks people may wish to offer. We use the venue also to
familiarise users for the http://www.SoftwareFreedomDay.org annual
event, which is less than two weeks away: Sat 15th September. If you'd
like to help out with SFD12, please attend this organising meeting
tomorrow. Poster/flier here: http://www.infohelp.co.nz/sfd12.html
Workshop is also a chance to meet other *nix users, have installation
questions answered & resolved, get on-line security tips, etc.
All welcome.
Kind regards,
Rik Tindall
