Regards,Barry Drake evenings seem to be better than during the day for most people in terms of IRC access and having an hour or so to concentrate. Allowing for trains to arrive, meals to be eaten, kids to be tucked up in bed that means 8PM is the earliest practical time, and 9PM seems better for some. We could split the difference and try for 8:30 I suppose. I am thinking of calling a meeting on this Monday evening, it doesn't seem to clash with anything else on the Ubuntu fridge calendar. Now would be a great time to object, and suggest a different time/date Alan. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

I have to get off early on the Tuesday for a conference near Hoddesdon, so there's no way I'm going to be on IRC 'till midnight. I don't know what internet access I'll get at the conference centre; if I'm having to use my gsm dongle, I won't be able to IRC Tuesday or Wednesday, and Thursday I have an early start for a funeral, but Monday would be just fine for me.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Linux expo in Feb 2011
Hi all, I got the mail below from Jeremy Comley in response to asking for a .org booth at the Cloud expo. I have said YES! and we need to get our act together in terms of staffing it and sorting out what we are doing on the stand etc. I expect an IRC meeting in the next few days would be a good starting point for this. Alan. As you may be aware Cloud Expo Europe takes place in early February at The Barbican, London. More at http://www.cloudexpoeurope.com/ I am writing to ask if you would be interested to attend the show as an exhibitor, at the .org Pavilion. The organisers have provided us with FREE SPACE, normally £345 per sqm, to organise the Pavilion and we are writing out to a number of Linux communityand related .org organisations to offer this on a first come first served basis. We are hoping to have 6-8 .orgs represented there. If you would like to attend please respond to this email as soon as possible as if we have insufficient interest then this offer will lapse in early January. A Pavilion structure will be provided, also power and internet connection for all exhibitors. But you will be responsible for all matters and costs surrounding attendance inc displays , PCs, power leads , literature, accommodation etc. More detail to follow on this when we know more about the level of demand. I do hope you can attend the show, where we are also exhibiting and speaking, more about us atwww.linuxit.com http://www.linuxit.com Look forward to hearing from you.
