Subject: [Wolves] THINGS FOR THIS YEAR

I have a bit of breathing space so I thought I would get this out there:

1. I'd like to organise a once a quarter Saturday or Sunday workshop.
This will be to discuss things that don't fit into one week day meeting.
For example practical things like setting up a server, firewall box,
nagios, etc.  Learn to program with python, perl, php, etc. Configuring
KDE oh wait that might take an entire weekend (Sorry Chris E I couldn't
resist).  These days will have a small £5-10 charge to include the cost
of a meal and refreshments, anything left over I thought it would be
nice to give as a gift to the person/people doing the talk.

2. Another trip, I thought it might be nice to go somewhere that isn't
all computers and might get missed as it isn't.  To that end I throw in
the suggestion of the National Rail Museum.  It's any interesting day
out with lots to look at, plus it's in york so if trains ain't your
thing there are other things you can do.

So to this end I need volunteers for the big talks, and ideas on what
people would like talks on. Please reply to this mail with

Volunteer: name.

For those volunteering and for ideas

Ideas: description.

For other suggestions on places you might want to go
Trip Ideas: Name of place.

Hope that all makes sense

Hi Dave,

I'd probably be able to participate in one or two of the workshop days, providing they don't fall on a school holiday...

I'm quite proficient in Python, and can give real-life usage examples backed up with code. 

Usage areas I could cover (not all at the same time!):
 Home-grown utilities
 Nagios monitoring scripts
 Moin-moin wiki mods & plugins
 Compare & contrast Python with BASH scripts
 CGI scripts
