Hi all,
I've thrown together some VERY basic web pages,take a peek at:
http://www.cpc.uea.ac.uk/alug/
Excellent! I hope it's an Apache server! Er... what's SF2?
These are just an idea of a framework that we could all knock into shape. On the website front, I agree anglian.lug.org.uk is the right thing to do.
I think we could also do with throwing together some form of press release that we can send out to all the local papers; something that gives them enough background info to give us a bit of free advertising.
Agreed. If you mail it to me I can see that Richard Smith, the local reporter, gets it for the EADT and the Evening Star.
Before we do any mainstream advertising, however, I think we need to make a firm decision on venue/date for the first meeting. I've not heard any major dissent, so do we go for some time over Sat 1st/Sun 2nd/Mon 3rd May? If no-one else is silly enough to volunteer, I'll sign up to co-ordinate the first meeting.
Yo! Well volunteered!
I'll also happily stump up the 47$ to make us a member of "Groups of Linux Users Everywhere" (GLUE - http://www.ssc.com/glue/) in the hopes of getting some freebies to give away at the first meeting. Does this seem like a good idea?
It's an excellent idea.
