Hi,
Jono Bacon (of Lugradio fame) visited us in #alug today and has offered his and Ted Haegar talks. I thought I'd post it to the list since a lot of people don't hang in the IRC channel all day.
Details are below:

Hey,
Both Ted Haegar from Novell and myself will come and do some talks. Both Ted and I offer two presentations each, so you can pick one for each of us:
Ted's Presentations:
- Linux Desktop Innovation at Novell - demonstrating such elements as
Xgl, Beagle, the new Main Menu for Gnome, and Novell's latest contributions to OpenOffice.org.
- Implementing Novell AppArmor - providing a practical how-to on
quickly securing desktop and server applications with Novell AppArmor.
My presentations:
- On the Front Line: Convincing People the Inconvincible - this
presentation covers how to perform effective advocacy, and covers a number of areas and concepts that LUG members can make use of.
- Building the Next Generation Linux Desktop - this presentation
discusses where the desktop came from, how it developed, and where it is going in the future. This will include coverage of bleeding edge software and coverage of usability issues.
We are thinkin of scheduling this for Thu 21st April.
If you could let me know how much interest there is that would be great.
Jono
As he says, could we have a show of hands as to who is interested and can make it on August 21st?
Cheers,
Dave
I'd certainly be interested.
Can we confirm the date? And also a venue with a railway station would be good.
Cheers, Richard
