Hi Isabell Not sure what, or where, might be of interest, but I have a foss display table under the Infopoint brand at the regular monthly computer fair in Bracknell. M3 and M4 are easy for Bracknell and there is easy free parking at the location. I run the table (almost) single handed and apart from a few regulars who use gnu/linux and come and chat, the activity is mostly very newbie centric. The display is non trading, the objective is not to make money, but to help and inform and occasionally, advocate. Partly a PR role. Definitely a volunteer activity. I am there almost every event, however, it is best to contact me before each events to check please. In addition to foss for windows, I offer lots of leaflets and a heavy ubuntu focus. Please contact me off list if this appeals or you have questions? http://www.britishcomputerfairs.com/cgi-bin/floorplan?vnu_id=5 (not as busy as this currently) http://infopointproject.org/wordpress/ (infopoint site, outdated) -- alan cocks Ubuntu user -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
