A UK Linux Day has been suggested for Sunday 29 April. The main backer so far is LinuxCare, who will act as co-ordinator and take out advertising to support the event, and other tentative support includes IBM and RedHat (although I'm trying to get some latitude on that, as I don't recall there being many ALUG RH experts/fans).
The main event would be an installfest, with appropriate disclaimers and support materials. Our contribution would be our time and the payoff should be increased membership numbers. Hopefully by that point, we should have awoken from hibernation anyway and things can get going for 2001.
Are we up for this? Any comments to feed back to lug.org.uk and LinuxCare? Shall I start trying to get one of the main venues at UEA (Hive or LCR)? Would we want to be based at UEA again, somewhere else, or at multiple centres?
