Hello,

Uninet Project (http://www.uninet.edu) is announcing its 2003 edition of the Umeet Conference (http://umeet.uninet.edu/umeet2003/english/pres.html) This year, the organizing comittee wants to start the event by a bof session dedicated to Software Patents in EU. Feel free to join this bof session, which will take place on Monday, December 15th at 18:00 UTC. Umeet conferences are given online through the IRC network of Uninet (http://www.uninet.edu/uninet/servers.html). The bof and conferences will take place in the #linux channel.

For those new to IRC, you need an IRC client (such as xchat, chatzilla, ircII) which has to be told to connect to one of the servers listed on the previously given web page and you have to join the #linux channel (usually by issuing a /join #linux command). If you need help or assistance, feel free to ask. Some web gateways to IRC servers are also available for users sitting behind restrictive firewalls or networks (http://irc.fr.uninet.edu/ is one of these gateways).
