THE LENDING LIBRARY
We have one?!
PUBLICITY COORDINATION
It would be nice to formalise these arrangements a
bit more.
I'll give it a crack with PLUG.
"I'll link yours if you link mine"
A nice easy step is to link each other's websites, so users in east anglia can check events at PLUG, CAMLUG or ALUG and then deciding which event is nearest/most convenient/most possible to attend.
MEETING FORMATS Following on from that, what format do we want
meetings to take?
Well, perhaps a timetable structure is in order if we are to have talks or discussions. Perhaps we could do a WIKI that has suggested topics, people could put *'s next to the topic if they are interested, and anyone willing could put their name against it to volunteer. i.e. 5 votes for the subject "The transistion from Windows to Linux ain't all that scary" (a talk for newbies), and the volunteer is me, might look like:
NEWBIE: The Transition from Windows to Linux: ***** R.Campos (June 9th)
That way we could gauge interest and have a single reference point as to who is offering to do what and when.
FREEBIES pins,
Pin the debian badge on the Beast of Redmond competition?
Seriously, though, raffles? Perhaps one for the FSF or similar,or we could do it on a computer to save paper ;), or help out for server costs for the ALUG site or summink.
flame on!
I know I haven't sorted linewrap, but you'll be glad that this e-mail was written on a Debian GNU/Linux system. ;) Yay, I gawn debian.
