Alan:
Thanks for the info. One of the reasons I got involved in the Fab project is
that I have an interest (bordering on obsession) with discovering or creating
the Ideal Computer Interface. Dale's Fab4Linux concept seemed to be a
definite step in the right direction.
Unfortunately, we haven't gotten the web site up yet. I did pass out some
CD's at the west-side January meeting, but there was a problem with the
install script that I've since corrected. I was unable to make it to this
month's east-side meeting due to a scheduling conflict, but I would like to
bring some of our latest-and-greatest beta CD's to the Stammtisch next week
if that's still happening. And hopefully we'll get the web site up and
working within the next month or so.
