MANLug meetings for February and March 2002.

16 February 2002, 14:00, usual place.  (For more information, see
our website: http://www.manlug.man.ac.uk, under 'How to find us'.)
Reminder: Please bring a 'photo ID' to show the porters if you are
asked.

     Mike Richardson
     An Introduction to Linux

Steve Lane (and others) asked us to put on an introduction to Linux
for absolute beginners, and Mike volunteered to adapt his one-day
course to finish it in three hours.  There will be slides and some
hands-on experience as well.  If you're not interested in the topic,
please come anyway: you might want to help out, or you might just
join in the discussion.


16 March 2002, 14:00, usual place.  (For more information, see
our website: http://www.manlug.man.ac.uk, under 'How to find us'.)

I have several postponed talks, and a few other suggestions, which
might cover March, though I have no confirmation from any of them.
Among the suggestions:

Robert Morris (of the Red Hat Certification Exam) would like to
speak about diald.

Adam Huffman might discuss pan, the Gnome newsreader, or the process
of joining (and getting heavily involved in) an existing free
software project.

James Youngman would like to talk about the web-based collaboration
environment, TWiki.  He has also suggests a PGP signing party
(perhaps with a talk), perhaps inviting various speakers, a
workshop on Apache, Gnome, or something of this sort, and a dozen
other excellent ideas that have been mentioned in the past and
never yet happened.
