 Our pub meets tend to be in Bournemouth these days We did use to have
 Dorchester and Blandford Forum ones but numbers dropped away with people
 moving, etc.

Bournemouth is a bit far for a Tuesday evening - I'll poke around my
calendar and see if can join you.

 Are you aware of Dorset Digital?

    We're an informal community of web and software professionals.

 As it happens, their next pub meeting is in Dorchester on 15th
 September, I think at Tom Browns.  They tend to finalise nearer the time
 on the list.

I wasn't, am now! I'll definitely see about looking them up.

 Cheers, Ralph.

 Hi Dan,

 By the way, does the LUG have an IRC channel perchance?

 Yep!  http://dorset.lug.org.uk/wiki/doku.php?id=irc  :-)

 Cheers, Ralph.

Ah yes, it's in the footer of the list emails! I should have spotted
that. I'll womble in later and say hello.

Hi Dan,

 I'm a Java and Python developer by trade, currently as a freelancer,
 and have been using Linux for a few years now. I'd still consider
 myself reasonably newbie though.

We've quite a few developers on the list, Java and Python among them.

 Day to day I use Ubuntu on my desktop machines and Debian on the
 servers, but I'm trying my hand at Arch at the moment in an effort to
 learn a little more.

And I know there's a few Archers too;  they're very vocal about it.  :-)

 Hopefully I'll be able to come to a meeting sometime soon and meet
 people.
