I apologise if this isn't the sort of posts allowed in the group, but<br>
there is a fledgeling Free Software Society at the University of Kent<br>
properly set up but without many members.<br>
<br>
Would KLUG consider holding any of its meetings under the joint<br>
auspices of the Society, or help in providing speakers?<br>
<br>
Despite having the mirrorservice servers on its campus, where<br>
repositories for all the major distros can be found, students are<br>
required to provide work in Microsoft formats. A major campaign which<br>
we are getting underway now is to try and get .odt accepted<br>
alongside .doc and .docx formats, to enable students who want to use<br>
open source software to do so for submissions.<br>
<br>
We want to raise students' awareness of Linux and all that it can do,<br>
so I hope we can join with KLUG's activities in some way.<br>
