Hi Guys The OSS Weekend starts tomorrow and ends on Sunday 28th May 2006. We shall be having technical sessions for beginners on Friday and Saturday afternoons and do expect to have the entire sunday dedicated to skills sharing, Install fest (the public has been told to bring their PCs and laptops for installation), career guidance and any form of Q&A related to FOSS. We are looking for volunteers who dont mind sharing their knowledge to come over and support this humble initiative to promote FOSS in Uganda. It is a very good opportunity I believe for us to get our voice heard out there and also demystify the "FOSS is not userfriendly" attitude out there.
FYI on Friday morning we have a workshop geared towards the managers and policy makers. You are invited to attend and its theme is "Cost effective IT Solutions" while on Saturday morning (when most people are usually blazed), we shall have a workshop for the Community Based organisations focusing on how FOSS can be of use in their service delivery. PS: Our very own Mr. Badru Ntege shall be making a presentation. I look forward to a good turn out of LUG members this time round.
