[wellylug] Installfest - NOTICE

The Wellington Installfest is, as has been advised, an opportunity for 
people who do not know Linux well to come and gain some appreciation of it.

Silicon Systems have provided the venue and infrastructure - Do not bring 
your own!

We, the organizing committee, have specified only certain distributions - 
Knoppix, Mandrake, Red Hat, and SME. We will allow Debian if necessary, but 
no more than that. It is too confusing for everyone including the supporters.

We have offers for demonstrations of certain items - Natcoll has offered to 
support this, and we have a flash introduction to Open Office. We have 
limited space in this area so no more offers accepted please.

Gaming - lovely idea, and we MAY be able to accommodate you in the build 
area - unless it gets too busy! You are optional - thank you. I recommend 
that you suggest a normal meeting night at LAN Place and involve everyone 
there.

Books - Dymocks have stripped their shelves for us and this will fill the 
front of the space we have. If you want a book this is definitely a place 
to come. Some Credit cards accepted.

Please - bring people who want to know about Linux and Open Source 
alternatives - but contain your own agenda to keep it simple. I apologize 
now if this sounds rather strong. We need to keep it simple for newcomers.
