[Liverpool] Fwd: [lugmaster] Talk: Greg Kurtzer and R. Leigh Hennig from the Rocky Linux project

[Dan Lynch]

Just a reminder that the Rocky Linux talk is online this Wednesday 
night, April 28th, 7:30pm onwards.

It's a big development in the Linux world this year and WolvesLUG have 
managed to get the main people behind the new distro. So well worth 
checking out.

Details below :)

As a reminder, this is next Wednesday. I'd be grateful if you could 
remind your LUGs and ask people to sign up via Meetup.com so we know 
whether we're going to need to pay for one of the Zoom large meetings 
addons to increase the number of attendees permitted.

As discussed previously, there's no need for a Zoom account and it is 
possible to watch it on the web without installing the Zoom client.

If people really don't want to sign up via Meetup.com, I'll be posting 
the Zoom details here on the day:

If you haven't already, please retweet/share the following links. I've 
been doing everything I can think of to promote the event and I could do 
with as much help as possible.
