Subject: [HUMBUG] Next Meeting - 6th December 2003
Date: Fri, 28 Nov 2003 20:01:15 CST
The Home Unix Machine Brisbane Users Group exists to get fellow
Unix users in contact with each other, to introduce people to
Unix and Unix-like operating systems, and to help users in
operating those systems. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Meetings tend to be informal. We socialize, discuss Unix and
computing, solve Unix problems for new and experienced users
alike and, these days, have regular talks.
Date: Saturday, 6th December 2003 (every second Saturday)
Time: From 3pm with the network up 30 minutes after we are
granted entry. The network will be brought down after
midnight to allow time to clean up for a 1am exit.
Venue: Room S201, Hawken Engineering Building (no. 50)
The University of Queensland, St Lucia Campus
Car parking is currently unregulated on Saturdays. The
University is serviced by public transport with frequent

Cost: Membership until our AGM in September is $20, but no one
has to join unless they are going to use club services
such as our network access during meetings.
Talks: Information on upcoming talks is announced separately.
For information on talks see the announcements by our
Talks Maintainer on the announce mailing list.
Food: The eating places (ranging from take away to a la Carte)
at 'The Ville' are usually open until about 10pm Saturday
night. There is also the Pizza Cafe on campus near the

Subject: LessTif Release 0.93.94 is out
The LessTif Core Team is pleased to announce
Release 0.93.94
of the LessTif library!
This is an intermediate release:
- Fix the crashes that were introduced by fixes for gadget colour
problems. These were reported to crash DDD and Grace.
About LessTif:
LessTif is a "free" (LGPL'd) implementation of the OSF/Motif standard
GUI toolkit for X11. LessTif aims to be source compatible with the Motif
(a product of The OpenGroup) versions 1.2 and 2.1.
Nearly all Motif 1.2 apps compile and work out of the box with LessTif!
We still lack substantial parts of the new 2.1 functionality,
but most 2.x applications can already be built and used (many don't use
the 2.x novelties).
Some run-time problems however may still exist. The LessTif Core team is
interested in hearing about Motif applications which don't work with LessTif.
Bug reports are welcome - patches are even more welcome!
More information, source code, and binaries for several platforms
are available at:
http://www.lesstif.org

Running on:
Linux 2.6.0-test9 #1 Sun Oct 26 17:14:53 CET 2003 i686
Using:
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57
