You must run throughout the Wilk in clothes laden with sequins arranged from no less than 5 different distribution CDs (current or past versions are acceptable), while alternately praising open source, and chanting in binary. You may substitute sitting/staffing a UUG club promotion/install-fest booth for running through the Wilk, but the rest is still mandatory. or You and a small group of friends must dress as ninjas and surround Richard Stallman at a public conference of your choosing. Assign one ninja to record video of you challenging Richard to a "Free Software Song" sing-off, and the resulting impromptu performance. Give the resulting content to Stuart Jansen to present at the next UUG meeting. or Install the distribution of your choice on the family computer. Claim the daemons made you do it. Dualboot and prior backups are optional, depending on your tolerance for mortal peril. Write about the experience and post it to the UUG mailing list, and at least one other general-public forum (The Daily Universe, KSL, SL Tribune, Time Magazine, etc.) or Some other activity to prove your metal, and at least as entertaining as the aforementioned. Such activity must be approved in advance from the club leadership. Approval is of course, easier to obtain if you volunteer for service in a club leadership position. Depending on the circumstances surrounding your previous Ubuntu install experience, you may have partially completed option 3. Go getem' tiger! We look forward to seeing you at the next meeting. It will be held sometime in the near to distance future. Unless it isn't. In which case it won't. Be sure to bring your secret handshake and SSL decoder ring. ;-Daniel Fussell -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
