[dundee] Software Freedom Day 2011(update) - CALL FOR TALKS & DEMOS

[Gavin Ewan]

I've bounced the idea of doing a talk on WINE off Finux so would be more
than happy to put my name forward for that.

Happy to do it in any format you recommend (with or without demo).

Regards,


Gavin Jac0byterebel Ewan
