Hi all, monthly notice, September 3,

Want to be part of a discussion for increasing FOSS employment in Chch?

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,
a troubleshooting & tuition workshop monthly. Notebooks are the easiest demo systems to bring. GNU/Linux Mint etc Ubuntu variants, releases 12.04-14.04, 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 / Some regular arduino program discussion / Venue familiarisation for http://www.SoftwareFreedomDay.org annual event:

We are setting up a mini-conference on opportunities for more work around Free and Open-Source Software implementation locally, 20 Sept. Be part of the planning and contributory presentations that day.

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
