heh, Ce la vie :D
I personally do beleive in this how-to thing. I've stared working and
have produced some decent stuff (IMHO). I'll devote around 1.5 hours of
work a day on my sections.
Oh, BTW, if the last 72 hours is a taste of things to come, I have to
buy a mental telepathy system to communicate with my PC. Too much
typing, ouch!!! I'll also need specs very soon lol

SO lets see what we all agree upon:
1. Promoting Linux on the Maltese desktop is a good idea.
2. This is hard to do.
3. It is harder to introduce Linux to the "Avarage Home User" (Keith's
levels 0-2) than it is to
penentrate Institutions/Corporations.
4. MLUG has few resources to do this (WE are all of the MLUGs resources)
SO what do we do?
My natural reaction would be to focus on promotion with institutions,
but instead we ended up
working on a HOWTO for Newbies who buy a PC with Linux Pre-Installed.
Then again this is a good way to tackle things. If the HOWTO will be
good enough for
newbies, then it should be trivial to adapt for corporations which
want to give
training to their emploees when switching to Linux!
Any way, if these last 72 hours are a taste of thing to come then I
belive the MLUG has a bright future!
Philip
P.S. do not take this post as meaning that I will not help out with
the HOWTO ... its just that it is an
outcome that I never expected!
