[Shain Singh]

Apologies for the cross-post, but I thought there would definitely be some
on this list that would be interested.

RMS is also speaking at Melbourne University -

On 16 September 2010, from 12:30 to 2:30, Richard Stallman
from the Free[1] Software Foundation will be speaking at
Storey Hall on Swanston Street, Melbourne.

The talk is free, and the IEEE-CS and SAGE-AU are getting
together to shout pizza and drinks afterwards.

(NOTE- for shouting the refreshments, SAGE-AU will have a
table with one of the banners from the conference and membership
information -- particularly student membership information)

You can help me a lot by letting me know the names of organisations
in Melbourne who might be interested in this. I will then contact
the organisations to promote the event.

I'm already planning to contact:

Melbourne PC Users' Group ,and especially the convenors of
special interest groups that seem to have an affinity with free
software.

The OpenSolaris Users' Group.

I think that there is a Linux group in Melbourne, but I'm not
sure of the name.

Is the AUUG still around in Melbourne?

Is there anyone who I've missed out?

-Don
