It is somewhat unlikely that the list admin is subscribed to all of the
lists, and monitors them for admin request. It's likely to be more
effective to email the admin directly. You find the address at the
bottom of the list info web page.

Trust Squishsoft to annoy mailing lists and mailing list users with
their automated crapola. No change in 30 years.

[Linux-users] GNU/Linux support Weds 7.30pm

2020-11-30 Thread Rik Tindall

Hi all, monthly notice, Dec 2.

Wednesday night is the GNU/Linux Users' workshop: 7.30pm-9.30pm in the 
South Learning Centre (SLC), through rear door of South Christchurch 
Library at 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere - 
https://my.christchurchcitylibraries.com/locations/SOUTH/ - held on the 
first Wednesday monthly, Feb-Dec. N.B. Covid-19 tracing app QR-code is 
at all council public facilities.


LiveCD/DVD/thumbdrive installs of freenix* operating system 
distributions are used to demonstrate alternative desktop environments, 
in the SLC computer lab of i5, all-in-one, touchscreen PCs.


Ubuntu-MATE is the Debian GNU/Linux variant we most display and Long 
Term Support releases like 20.04 are recommended, though rolling 
upgrades (like 20.10, October release) tend to run fastest with very 
latest kernel drivers and software incorporated. Both are up-to-date, 
secure, and will run well on a lot of ageing equipment to extend its 
life. See http://debian.org background and 
http://ubuntu-mate.org/download/ for these distros and 
http://distrowatch.com for a great many other variants to choose from. 
Portable devices welcome, esp. laptops, Android phones etc.


BYO distributions and any new tech you like; overhead projector / large 
screen - let us know if you have a presentation to offer.


Thanks to NZOSS support through ChristchurchTech meetup group, we offer 
a Big Blue Button online connection to our meeting:

We hope to see you there. Thank you for the support of these workshops.

Kind regards,

Rik Tindall
