Hi Announce subscribers,

Organisation for this year's Linux Install Days is going ahead at a furious pace. ALUG is running events on both the 19th May at Syleham near Diss and 9th June at UEA Norwich. Some details can be seen at http://www.alug.org.uk/contrib/?LinuxInstallDay2002 and the national event site is http://www.linuxinstallday.org/

If you want to see what GNU/Linux can do, please come along to one of the events and introduce yourself to us. If you want help with installing on a computer you're bringing, please fill out the help request form at http://www.linuxinstallday.org/

Also, I'm asking for your help in making this event a success. The first date is now only about ten days away, so we need to start getting information out to libraries, offices, computer shops and local noticeboards. You can download PDFs of posters and leaflets at the web site. Please add a note if you start publicising the event, so we know who's active in each area and try to cover most of them.

Help is needed at the actual events, too. If you're good at installing GNU/Linux onto systems, especially if you've experience at dual-booting, then please make yourself known, either on the main@lists.alug.org.uk list, or just to the venue organiser.

Thanks for reading,
