So, to condense this there are a few tasks that need doing immediately:<br>
<br>
1. Set up printing using the laser and/or photocopier<br>
2. Set up the projector with one computer<br>
3. Run introductory sessions<br></blockquote><div><br>I'm happy to help with any of these. Will try to coordinate with you. <br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

The last one is really the biggy that the LUG can get behind. I've<br>
actually been considering the possibility of running some kind of<br>
beginners sessions where we just have some computers with Linux on that<br>
people can come and play with. Possibly we could demonstrate installing<br>
Linux on a Windows PC or something. Anyway, I'm thinking we could put<br>
something together for the Social Centre people first and then put on a<br>
session that's open to the general public? TBD :-)<br>

Bob<font color="#888888"></font><br></blockquote><div><br>I like this idea and I think we could do well with it. I speak to plenty of people who'd like to learn about Linux but feel that they'll be ridiculed or confused by the LUG. They wouldn't be, I know that from the great people we have. But getting that message out to the wider community would be good. Dispel the myth that we're all angry bearded people, ok so I might not be helping with particular part much.<br>
<br>As I said. I'm happy to help. Doubt I can make it down this Monday but you never know. If you're planning to head down any other time and work on this let me know, or post here, I'm sure I'll get along to help sometimes if not every time.<br>
