moin, moin,
We now have a couple of new challenges. One, as foreshadowed in parenthesis
in the first sentence of the post I just sent, is to put on a successful
west side InstallFest. That topic's been coming up since we started
planning the InstallFest and I heard it requested many times Sat.
YES!, we want to have a successful west side InstallFest. In order for it to
happen, we need a few people to come forward to organize it. Please let me
know if you'd like to work to make it happen.
The other challenge is something I posted last week. We will be starting
classes doing an Intro to GNU/Linux starting the first Wed of Sep. These
classes will be open to the public and free of charge. They will be on the
east side at Sequoia ( just a warning for the west-siders: we want to hold
classes on your side of the planet as well ). We do not currently have a
curriculum lined out or have presenters, so please feel free to step forward
and help out :).
We hope to run a six-month course with meetings once a month. The goal for
the classes is to teach people who have no GNU/Linux experience ( maybe
even no computer experience at all ) how to use the basic functionality of
a GNU/Linux desktop. We intend to include several key applications such as
Open Office, gimp and a mail client.
ciao,
der.hans
