I'm all in favour. If it is within the UK and to do with Ubuntu, then it must be relevant. -- Tim Powys-Lybbe t...@powys.org for a miscellany of bygones: http://powys.org/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

However, what do others > think? Sounds good to me, I'll make a note for any future announcements I do for Liverpool LUG. Usually, I only make one post a month regarding the LUG and I avoid sending out reminder emails to anywhere except the main LivLUG list. -- Andrew Williams w: http://tensixtyone.com/ e: a...@tensixtyone.com signature.asc Description: Digital signature -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

However, if the > list becomes overwhelmed by many events then i might think differently. If an [EVENT] (or on a another fairly high volume list I'm on [ANN], short for announcement, is a desirable prefix) then I'll certainly try to help people We have about 14 young hackers from DFEY from all around the UK heading to London this weekend. The support everyone has given us, getting us to this point where we can go events like this, is something we really hold dear to us. The first anniversary of DFEY-NW's first meeting is on the 31st August, at the time a landmark of months of hard work but with an uncertain future - whilst there's is lots more to do, we have come a long way since then. Things have certainly changed since the days of nearly getting kicked out of the place we were meeting because a pub was the only convenient place we could find to meet, despite most of us being underage! :P If you aren't familiar with Digital Freedom in Education & Youth, please drop past and take a look at our new website at www.dfey.org Many Thanks, Tim (DFEY-NW Co-organiser) -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Personally, I have no objections to people raising events that, in best judgment, are of interest to Ubuntu users in the UK. However, if the list becomes overwhelmed by many events then i might think differently. I'm not expecting more than a couple of [EVENT]'s per week, so i don't think it will add too much traffic to the list. However, what do others think?

Suprisingly, this is one of the best lists in the UK to announce open source events to, as the Ubuntu UK list covers alot of UK foss users who don't really post or get involved anywhere else.

I'm not young, and I'm in the North West of England, and I don't mind. I wish the Google thingy said 15-81 and we could have all gone.
