[Herefordshire] HLug meeting 19.8.2004.

[Andrew Hodgson]

Hi,

Well I will not be there as I am on holiday.  One thing the Malvern LUG do is to have meetings at someone's house to avoid the use of laptops and other complications when demoing equipment.  While this probably isn't the right time to do this, it may be something to think about for the future.  As for distributions, it may be preferable to compile a list of distros that people have so that if necessary people know what is available and if someone wants something different, they can ask and we will see if we can arange for it.  I have several older distributions available, plus a quick start network router pack including mail server and the like called SME Server, which is good if you want to get everything working without modifications, and is the basis for my main Linux box (although it doesn't bare much resemblance to the original distro now!!).  However, as I am seriously considdering changing distro altogether, I would like to know what people currently have so that I could perhaps get a copy?

Andrew.

Hello everyone,

The next Herefordshire Lug meeting will be on Thursday 19.8.2004, see the
Events page for more details.

Since the last meeting the web site and mailing list have gone live so we
now have somewhere to discuss things amongst ourselves.

At the meeting.

There was a lot of noise at the Spread Eagle last time, if that persists we
may need to go elsewhere. We also need to think about north/south meetings.
This was mentioned on list recently, any other offers?

What do you want from your web site?  Content, style, interactivity etc..
Julian will outline his ideas for interactive web pages.

Can any of you bring Linux laptop/s along please?

 We also need to think about marketing ourselves and getting some publicity
going. I have made a tentative approach to the Hereford Times but we need
someone to take this on.

If anyone wants copies of any distros etc..  please speak now and don't
forget to bring the equivalent number of blank CD's along as well.

If you have any thoughts about the above please post them so that we can be
thinking them over for next week.

Hope to see you all next Thursday.

Noel.
