[Alug]Meeting report - Norwich sunday 20th July
Ten people attended the sunday afternoon meeting at RBLH in Norwich - MJR, Colin Hards, Ashley Howes, Paul Corner, Adam Bower, Kirsty Naylor, BenE, Syd Hancock, Brett Parker and James Taylor. In usual ALUG fashion the meeting was understated but constructive - Xandros was repaired, library books distributed for reading and review, donated items of equipment and CDs distributed, future meeting venues discussed (Ely is next for a pub crawl, sorry I mean speculative exploratory visit), Mark did something to his laptop which no-one understood (possibly including Mark) and home-made cakes eaten amid discussions, arguements and banter on diverse topics ranging from sourceforge eveloper management or bandwidth costs to bits falling off cars and the usual My Distro Roolz OK :-) Overall a very satisfying afternoon. ------------------------------------- Some advance notices (all will be announced separately later): 1. Next Norwich evening meeting: second thursday of August i.e 14th August at the Forum. (If anyone knows of another free suitable evening venue please let me know). 2. Next Norwich sunday meeting proposed for the last w/e in September - full details later once settled. 3. If anyone has access to room booking at UEA please contact me off-list (don't worry about having to 'organise' anything - we just need someone who can book a room :-) Syd

I thought running Morphix Games CD on it was quite understandable. Oh, you mean me trying to run the program I deliberately broke the day before? Yes, that was a mistake... -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know.

No I didn't. I spent most of Sunday compiling mozilla (well, I thought it was firebird but I must have accidently untarred it into an old moz directory that was on my 'puter. ::grin::). Oh, and playing pingus and simon the sorcerer on scummvm :-) Plus trawling through the fortean times website. BenE --------------------------------- Love is all I bring, in me crass t-shirt 'n' ting
