Forthcoming Events

After a flurry of ideas on the mailing list we are planning a few different meeting ideas. Maybe a few more social ones and also a visit to a neighbouring LUG (Hereford, you have been warned). Join the mailing list (see the About page) to join in the discussions and/or the Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/39618351156/) to ensure you get the invites.

News Feeds

Added this Easter weekend, after Glyn suggested adding something a little more dynamic to the front page, we have a selection of news feeds from several Linux and Open Source news sites. If you have any suggestions for more, please let us know.

Slide Presentations Available Online

Presentations in ODP format from our January 2006 meeting are now available for download from this site. Thanks Paul and Gareth! Here they are: Qemu Demo by Paul Broadhead and XEN Overview by Gareth Bromley.
