Jack: 14?! Ridiculous! We need to develop one universal standard that covers everyone's use cases. Sophie: Yeah! [Soon:] Situation: There are 15 competing standards. </QUOTE> -- xkcd: http://xkcd.com/927/ , under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial licence. -------------------------------------- This comics kinda summarises my attempt at reviving TelFOSS (= the Tel Aviv Open Source Club) in order to create an open-source and computing club in Tel Aviv and vicinity, which will be as comprehensive as possible. The site can now be found at the new URL of: http://tel.foss.org.il/ [old_site] And I am planning to have monthly meetings. I believe I can find a room in Shenkar College, but if you have alternative rooms, feel free to suggest them. We are looking for talks about any subject that is related to free and open-source software (FOSS). Talks should be no longer than two hours. If you are interested in giving a talk E-mail me at [email protected] . The reason that the club was inactive since 2010 is because I lacked the energy to organise meetings, and no one else volunteered to do it instead. In the meanwhile, there has been an inflation of semi-active, and more specialised, clubs. Regards, Shlomi Fish [old_site] - there's an old site at http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/telux/ , but I am no longer able to update it, so please ignore it. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Shlomi Fish http://www.shlomifish.org/ Original Riddles - http://www.shlomifish.org/puzzles/ Chuck Norris is the ghost author of the entire Debian GNU/Linux distribution.
