Sounds excellent. How about meetings every 3rd Friday of every
month or whatever it was before? We could also give people
an incentive to come. For example if someone can't configure
something s/he can bring the box and we will set it up (
provided the room has a spare monitor and a keyboard so that
there is no need to bring the whole desktop?). Also, I can burn
some Linux CDs and give them out once in a while.
