Vancouver Ubuntu SIG

[Kim Kulak]

Hi,

If you have an interest in forming an Ubuntu SIG in Vancouver then join us 
tomorrow, November 19th, at 7:00 (1/2 hour before VanLUG) in the Telus Theatre. 
This will be an informal get-together to judge the interest in forming an Ubuntu 
SIG and what we hope to achieve by forming the SIG.

And in case you haven't attended VanLUG previously please stick around and 
listen to Mike's presentation on OpenMoku at 7;30.

VanLUG November 19th Meeting,
7:30-9:00pm
Telus Theatre, Building SE6, BCIT Burnaby Campus

OpenMoko is an Open Source project to create the world's first free
mobile phone operating system. It is being developed along with an open
hardware reference platform, the FIC Neo1973. The software is still at a
"developers-only" stage, but is moving toward a level of stability that
will be suitable for regular users.

At the November meeting, local software developer Mike Montour will
present his experiences as an OpenMoko early adopter and will talk about
the upcoming (and highly anticipated) "GTA02" hardware revision. The
recent open-sourcing of Trolltech's Qtopia Phone Edition will also be
discussed.

The main sources of information about the OpenMoko project are:

      * The Wiki at http://wiki.openmoko.org
      * Mailing lists and archives at http://lists.openmoko.org
      * The #openmoko channel on irc.freenode.net

VanLUG meetings are free and open to all. Please pass along this
invitation to anyone you know who may be interested in learning more
about Linux and/or Open Source.
