Jeff Waugh @ GLLUG -- October 14th Announcement
I'm pleased to announce that Jeff Waugh, Ubuntu expert and Gnome hacker,
will be coming to see GLLUG on Friday evening, October 14th, as part of
his BadgerBadgerBadger tour.
This GLLUG meeting is going to be slightly different to previous ones
due to its evening nature. Jeff's going to talk about Ubuntu and
GNOME and then take questions and discuss either of those projects
with the group. As he's speaking a day after the planned release date
of Breezy Badger we'll be one of the first to be told about the new
features. After this we'll be heading to the local Greenman pub for
food and drink.
This GLLUG meeting will be held on October 14th
between 19:00 and 20:30 at New Cavendish Street campus of
Westminster University. This is located in the shadow of the BT Tower.
The nearest tube stations are Great Portland Street, Warren Street and
Goodge Street. Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Circus are also within
easy walking distance.

This event is FREE to members and non-members. As we're only having a
single talk before going out to socialise this is also a perfect time to
come along for your first GLLUG.
The details for this meeting can be found here:

Apologies for the lack of notice for this meeting. The next Saturday
GLLUG will return to a longer notification period.

<A HREF=3D"http://www.linuxlinks.com/">LinuxLinks.com</A>, together with th=
e
help of the Linux community, has reached another milestone today. We now
list 30,000 entries specifically of interest to Linux users. The 17,000+
links to Linux software alone is testament to the popularity of the
operating system.
Of course, the Linux community has played an important role in achieving
this milestone with many thousands of these entries having been contributed
by aficionados of this popular operating system. Thanks for your support!
Background to LinuxLinks.com
LinuxLinks initially began as a private home page. Back in 1994 Linux was
beginning to take off and our bookmarks had become increasingly
disorganised. Over time, demand increased from other users to list the Linu=
x
sites on a more formal basis. LinuxLinks was then created.
As the internet grew we saw the need to register a domain name, to make it
easy for people to find the latest Linux links. Our goal is to make it
simple for all types of Linux users, whether they be a complete beginner or
a UNIX wizard, to find the most useful Linux sites on the internet in the
least amount of time.
LinuxLinks.com is more than just the most comprehensive set of Linux Links!
With our unique "MyLinks" software we offer you a great way to follow the
latest developments in the Linux world. Sit back and receive (at most) a
daily email pointing you to the changes in the Linux world that matter to
you! With our Linux forums you also have access to Linux experts who will
endeavor to solve your questions!
No portal site is complete without a rolling news service. We cover all of
the leading Linux news stories, articles, and press releases.
