Fwd: Southeast LinuxFest

[Andrew Todd-3]

Hey DULUG,

This showed up in my old Duke inbox today (two years after I graduated and
it's still active, very handy). They're looking for some support, but this
isn't really my area anymore and I don't think DULUG has a formal structure
at the moment. If someone else would like to help them out, please go ahead
and post to the list; let me know if you need edit access to the DULUG wiki.


Thanks,
Andrew Todd (former DULUG president)

Hello! I am a member of UCLUG. I just wanted to let this LUG know about  
Southeast LinuxFest, an event being planned by UCLUG. It will be very  
similar to Ohio LinuxFest, and what LinuxWorld was back when it was in  
Atlanta. That is to say a very fun, very diverse, and very community  
oriented Linux convention. But we cannot do this without the support of  
other LUGs. Before we can even form an entity to handle finances, much  
less solicit sponsorships, we must have the backing of other LUGs to show  
that there is demand, enthusiasm, and a potential for a real crowd for  
this event. That's where you come in. If you guys decide you're in favor  
of supporting such an event, please step forward and add your LUG to our  
"LUGS backing this event" page on our wiki. Also, please nominate somebody  
to serve as a coordinator for your LUG. We need an easy way to keep  
communication open and coordinate with all the LUGs. We have a wiki and an  
IRC channel setup, as well as weekly meetings on IRC. I encourage you to  
participate in both. If you have any questions, suggestions, or ideas,  
don't hesistate to use the wiki or join our IRC channel.

The details:

Wiki: http://www.southeastlinuxfest.com/wiki/
IRC: #southeastlinuxfest on IRC Freenode... weekly meetings Tuesday 9:00  
PM Eastern

Thanks!
