Firstly a big thank you to S7 for again hosting us and providing refreshments. As Victor was detained up country I did a quick demo of Flightgear and OpenERP 6.0 RC1.
We then launched into a very interesting discussion. It started with Reinier asking a simple question. "How do we get NGO's using FOSS over proprietary solutions which cost much more?" This led us into an active discussion of what topics we should have under the tutorial section of the website. I have documented the ideas and you can find them here. http://linux.or.ug/node/812 I would encourage all members to read them, and over the coming weeks and years adopt a topic. We will break them down into pages and flesh out each one with a view of producing a book or similar in future to guide all types of Businesses in FOSS. The idea is also not to reinvent the wheel, but if possible link to existing tutorials etc. Anyone with idea's will be able to contribute once we work out the wiki type format structure. Keeping watching this space and we will be sending you some more information once it is worked out. Reinier also brought up the idea of maybe hosting Decembers meeting outside KLA so again watch this space for more information.
