Topic(s) for the evening:
    * Discussion around running an Infopoint [1]
    * Discussion of Software patents [2] and the upcoming European 
Elections [3] - 
Russ has been doing some homework [4] on this. (Obviously this will be too 
late to influence our actual voting, but we can still have a good rant 
about it...)
    * Brief (verbal) review of Lycoris Desktop/LX [5] and Xandros Desktop 
OS 2 [6] 
(these are on the latest LU&D [7] magazine which will be at the meeting as 
well)
    * General Discussion

Connectivity:
   - ? (although I believe Russ has bought a wireless router, so we can 
abuse^H^H^H^H^Huse their ADSL)

RSVP:
    If you think you are going to attend, please respond to this thread 
(so Jen & Russ can figure out how many mugs they need...)

Website has been updated accordingly.
