Re: Meeting Thursday night (edited to be factually correct)

Hello all,

If anyone is interested in attending an in-person meeting - please consider responding to the OCBUG poll for an in-person/hybrid get-together in November: https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/aK18ELzd/vote

Personally, I think there is a lot of overlap in interest/topics between these user groups - but I also understand that some would rather focus on Linux distros or *BSD flavours.

Sincerely,
Katie

Attention : courriel externe | external email

No-one has arranged a physical meeting, so the meeting will be on jitsi only.

That said, if anyone wishes to arrange a physical get together with others, then they can do that, and join the rest of us on the jitsi meeting.

The link will follow, before Thursday's meeting.

As an employee of the organization responsible for that disto, I may
have some opinions about the subject...  ;-)    It was a bit messy...
