The Greater London Linux User Group, is having another meeting.
Apologies for the short notice for this meeting, we have been
short of volunteers to organise this meeting, and we almost
didn't have it. But since it'll probably be the last meeting
for this year; we thought we should make the effort to get
together. The details for speakers are still being finalised,
but we thought we'd also let anybody who wants to "show and tell"
do so!
Hopefully we'll update the web site with any further details
before the meeting. So looking forward to seeing you there.

There is a GLLUG meeting on Saturday 20th November 2004,
between 1:30pm and 5pm.
We will be meeting in the New Cavendish Street campus of Westminster
University. This is in the shadow of the BT Tower, the nearest tube
stations are Great Portland Street, Warren Street and Goodge Street.
You will find a map at http://www.wmin.ac.uk/cavendish/Map.htm
or via the html version of this announcement on the GLLUG website
[http://www.gllug.org.uk/meeting-20041220.html]
NOTE: you will need to sign in at the front desk to gain access to the
building.
This event is FREE to members and non-members alike, if you want to
join GLLUG, sign on to the gllug-announce mailing list, detailed on
the Online page of the GLLUG web site [http://www.gllug.org.uk].
SCHEDULE
========
The meeting will start at 1:30pm with a series of Lightning Talks (each
talk lasting no longer than 15 minutes). [details to come]
OTHER ACTIVITIES
================
We will have one lab area, down in the basement, room number LG17.
There will be signs directing people there.
People can also bring and setup their own machines. You can do this
if you have something to show off, or you are looking for a solution
to some problems. If your are bringing in your own machine, make sure
you sign it in when you arrive, otherwise security won't let you take
it when you go! We'll have monitors, keyboards, mice, and powerleads
available. [So no need to lug all that stuff].
We should have access to some of the latest iso images and some CD-Burners.
If you decide to bring a PC, please have the serial number written
down ahead of time, in case it needs to be registered at the ground
floor Reception. We may also take a picture of you and your PC as
proof of ownership ... or if it's real pretty :-)
The lab is where you can go to, should you be looking for sanctuary
away from the formal talks. Actually, if we're lucky the Refectory on
the ground floor will have its food and drinks machines restocked;
I believe its just been refurbished.
AFTER THE MEETING
=================
After the meeting, for those that want, the group will probably move
off to 'The Green Man' public house, opposite Great Portland Street
Tube, about 8 minutes walk away.
Even if you were unable to make the daytime meeting, please feel
free to join us at the pub; to chat about the issues raised in the
talks or anything else that takes your fancy. To help you find the
pub, check out the link on the website.
Usually we also then go off to one of the cheaper restaurants nearby,
else the pub usually serves food.
CONTACT US
