[SLUG] no debsig/codefest?
I came. I saw. The building was locked. There was a room nearby with a Debian logo outside of it. The room was empty. I went home. What happened to everyone else? -- Del -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

quote(Del); I came. I saw. The building was locked. No it wasn't! You just didn't look hard enough. ;-) There was a room nearby with a Debian logo outside of it. The room was empty. Which room is it that you speak of? : I went home. Shame. What happened to everyone else? We came, we saw, we drank (caffiene), some actually coded - and some even mentioned the word Debian. ...and it's still going. - Chris -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

You just didn't look hard enough. ;-) It looked very very locked, with big gates all closed shut with big padlocks on them. I spent 20 minutes or so walking around the building and all of the buildings adjacent to it. There were no entrances that I could see that were not locked. I tried the handle on every door that I found. They were all locked. Is there some secret subterranean passage that I should have known about? A wormhole gateway in from sector 45 alpha? One of those groovy ice portals like in Van Helsing? Pity, because I would have liked to try the ice thingy, even if there were vampires on the other side. There was a room nearby with a Debian logo outside of it. The room was empty. Which room is it that you speak of? : Down a set of stairs in an adjacent building, immediately east of the Engineering building. At the end of a corridor. It had lots of CROs and PCs and other electronics gear in it. One feature was a big mob of cables with a BNC connector on one end and alligator clips on the other, hanging on some kind of rack near the door. I'm not sure that it had a name. It was some kind of lab. There were no actual people in it. It wasn't the building that was marked on the map, anyway, so I was probably in the wrong place. We came, we saw, we drank (caffiene), some actually coded - and some even mentioned the word Debian. ...and it's still going. Good to hear. I did cut some code, on the ferry on the way home. I even have it working now, once I got on the net and figured out why I was getting that particular error. Yay for google. Perhaps it was easy to find if you were a uni student and know the secret entrances into the building, which I failed to find. Trouble is, I went to Uni of WA and not USyd. So perhaps you need to restrict these meetings to USyd old boys, put a sign up (or perhaps several), or make them easier to find. -- Del -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

It was in the same building, and there was a door just near by. That said,I'm not a uni student, and for those who don't know me, I have not yet been a uni student either. ;-) Did you try the phone number on the signs? : - Chris -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
