Free Software! McLUG's first install fest!
The Install Fest will be on Friday October 3rd, from 15h00 to 21h00 in Burnside Hall room 1B18.
This software includes a Microsoft compatible Office Suite, with many mail clients, web browsers and other software titles and packages to choose from. All you need to do is bring your tower (we'll provide the monitor, keyboard and mouse) to our install fest and an advanced Linux user will guide you through the install. You can even keep your evil corporate software and run both if you desire!
September 21st, 2003 Next Meeting: Second Cup on McGill College (same as earlier) 13h00 on Monday September 22nd. The focus of this meeting will be planning for the install fest. September 18th, 2003 Install fest! The Install Fest will be on Friday October 3rd, from 15h00 to 21h00 in Burnside Hall room 1B18. Spread the word! More to come on this subject soon. September 3rd, 2003 Next Meeting: Second Cup on McGill College (below the main gates for folks new to town). 12h00 (noon) on Friday September 5th. All are welcome, look for the table of geeks. September 1st, 2003 This website isn't very active, instead the mailing list is where most communications are. Email me for info on how to subscribe. I hope to recruit some volunteers to get the website more interesting and useful some time this semester. If you are interested, please email me. June 2nd, 2003 As promised on the McLUG mailing list, I have mirrored the Gentoo 'LiveCD's. They are here. Please note
that I haven't tried them yet, so I don't know how well they work (if at all).
May 23rd, 2003 Ok, 4 months has gone by without any updates on this page, but with interested discussions on the mailing list.
Now that summer is almost here, maybe it is time for a new meet?
January 25th, 2003 Our first meeting has come and gone, thanks to all that came out - there will be more. Next on the todo list is to get a real web site going. This will be in the works, but only until after February 10th. I have a big deadline with my day job (new servers - running linux of course - and new design/features). If you have ideas for the website, and/or want to volunteer to do some/all of the work, please email me. Like the new McTux? :-) Bigger version here although, I prefer this motto. If you are here looking for the YellowDog Linux Mirror, it is here. January 15th, 2003 Our first meeting! Friday, January 17th, 2003 at 14:00 EST. We will be meeting at the Second Cup in McGill Metro station. This will be a pretty informal meeting and all are welcome. (Yes, I have changed the order of the messages on this page to reverse chronological). December 29th, 2002 Ok, things are still moving slowly, but we now have a mailing list. Contact me if you are interested in joining. Once I get back from holidays (January 3rd), I'll get a bit more pro-active in getting things going. October 28th, 2002 Ok, things are still moving a bit on the slow side, and this is my fault. Baby #2 arrived on Wednesday so I'm on paternity leave and sleep is in short supply. We should have our mailing list setup soon. Everyone who expressed interest and emailed me will be auto-subscribed to the list (unless you ask me not to). I also heard from Nicholas Accad (the webmaster for MLUG) and I would hope that we'll be able to do things with them as well as on campus stuff. More to come soon. October 14th, 2002 Things are moving slowly, but moving. We have to change the name from MLUG to McLUG because there already is an MLUG for the Montreal Linux Users Group. Check their site out at www.mlug.ca. We should probably consider working with them. In the meantime, here is something interesting to read. October 3rd, 2002 More to come soon, but for now, if you are a member of the McGill Community and are interested in Linux, or use Linux please let me know and I'll email you when we have organized (should be soon). |
