Hi all,
Next month, we're going to host a joint Surrey/Hants Bring-a-Box meeting
here at Red Hat in Farnborough. It'll be on Saturday 13th November from
11-5, everybody welcome.
We'll be in the training facilities, so will have the use of some PCs to

If a man is innocent until proven guilty, should he be convicted for an
act that may or may not be hiding evidence of wrong-doing?
