[wellylug] InstallFest Summary

[Lindsay Hunter]

If any reseller or similar would like enquiries to be directed to them, 
they could indicate their support with money?  So, if Lindsay wants his 
business to be visible, then he should contribute.  I note this is how 
Auckland LUG did it, and found it worked well.

Jeremy suggests LAN Place.  It would be good for the technical support 
but difficult to have an open public access methinks.  It is fan noisy 
so hearing beyond short range is difficult for anyone who has listened 
to modern music.  :-(

Lindsay will be there, barring injury.  I need talk to Colin about venue 
before we commit to the one I have in mind.  Can we set aside 60 minutes 
on Saturday outside of the NZOSS time, preferably in the morning.  Phone 
934 1702, 470 Evans Bay Parade.  

 Who is our Rongotai College member?
