Hey there folks

Thanks Johan for posting the details to this list. It slipped my mind
in the chaos yesterday.

Not sure who posted the info to
http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-za/2039/detail/ but there are
some issues with the details.

There are multiple Gloria Jeans coffee shops in Durban. There are even
2 of them in the Gateway shopping center. The venue is Gloria Jean's
Coffees in Davenport Square

I don't mind Johan being listed as a contact, so long as any info is
passed on to me since I am the one organizing the event.

Maybe I'm still a bit over emotional after last night, but it kind of
feels like this event which is being run and organised by the Durban
Linux User Group has been co-opted by the Loco team. At least that's
how it looks reading the contents of
http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-za/2039/detail/ . The DBN-LUG
support Ubuntu and a number of our users use it, but I feel that since
DBN-LUG members are organizing this get together, this should be
reflected somewhere. I may lurk on this mailing list and on #ubuntu-za
from time to time, but I don't feel that makes me a member of  the
South African Ubuntu team.
