Date: Tuesday 13 June 2006 23:33

[Please forward - I am not sending this one directly to the LUGs myself.]


I have now placed the timetable for this event onto the website.  We've
again put together a strong and varied line-up designed to appeal to all
tastes!  As usual, O'Reilly will be offering books at a discount and
Linux Emporium will also be there.

If you're thinking of attending but haven't placed your booking yet, please
would you do so ASAP?  We have to finalise numbers with the venue rather
early this year - first thing on Thursday this week (June 15th) - so
later bookings may miss out on food and accommodation:-(

Also, if you know of any people who might be interested in the free
introductory talks on Saturday (see below), please consider inviting
them - perhaps by forwarding this message to them.

Thanks,
Alasdair
