[SlugLUG] Installfest despair

[Michael Dale]

:( I would have taken a more active role but I won't be in the area for 
the next two months & I am not a student... but I should be around in 
the fall..
Perhapses an alternate structure for the local person to person linux 
support system should be considered...maybe doing linux install 
workshops as a freeskool class... or I don't know what ideas do people 
have. Ideally given everyones time constraints it would just be 
something that manifests every few weeks where people could, support 
Linux newbies and chat it up with other more experienced linux users... 
I don't know maybe just a mailing list is good enough for now until some 
steps up and does the organizing.
