History..
We have a wiki on the LLUG website thats not secure and keeps getting 
spammed!  we are looking at a resolution, and still no decision as yet.

History...
The website is a bit out of date through no-ones fault, its a time thingy!

I'll do it! A complete rebuild? should it include the wiki as an 
integral part?

History..
We decided to create our own linux liveCD for demonstration purposes and 
to install to our hard drives if we fancied.

Oh yes, my bit  ;)   Haven't looked at it in the past couple of weeks, 
but knoppix 4.0.2 CD version looks fine for a remaster.
No prob in that but we still need to get a Lincs look'n'feel.  Looking 
for a KDE theme that suits our needs.

History...
We've only had 1 meeting in real life so far.  We need another!  But 
getting a suitable venue had been the problem due to the spread out 
nature of the group.  I think we settled on Lincoln for the next one, 
but no dates as yet.
