[SlugLUG] Installfest Nov 22nd?

[Matt Thrailkill]

I would show up.  Ubuntu 7.10 is pretty amazing, and I came to the last
one.

Maybe we will have a better turnout being on a school day?

As far as advertising, our best bet is to put up flyers around Baskin
and maybe at the dining halls, plus get ourselves into the SOE
Newsletter?  If you commit to the date ASAP (I only saw your mail today)
hopefully you've got time to get in the newsletter twice before the
Installfest.
