Hi Jono

The CDs will be very handy, great thanks.


I have not set a time or date. I am at idea stage, and
it has come about from speaking to a number of people
in the village who have not heard of Linux but became
interested when I told them a bit more about it. I
believe there is interest, its just putting it all
across in a non-tech language and that has to be the
ultimate goal of the event.

Cheers

Mo
