QCLUG is going to have a table, I have burned 25 copies of Ubuntu 8.10 and=
25 copies of Kubuntu 8.10 . I don't think I will make any of 8.04 LTS =
since these are show and tell disk so we might as well provide the latest v=

ease make some copies.<br>
<br>
Mark, Do you remember about how many copies we burned last year?<br>
<br>
If anyone thinks we need more than these 50 CD's please let me know so =
I can make them and take them with me. Much faster on my desktop box. I wil=
l bring some blanks along just in case.<br>
<br>
I don't have any CD sleeves so if anyone wants to put them in sleeves a=
nd has some laying around we could put them to use.<br>
<br>
Before the date, I'll need a reminder of which building and parking lot=
to use. Thanks.<br>

If the LUG sets up a booth I can probably provide a CIPAFilter to put on di=
splay in it to give you something to point at when you talk about embedded =
applications.<br>

If the QCLUG decides to setup a booth at the "Showcase" I am avai=
lable<br>
if needed. Like last year I can be a "gofer" or whatever you n=
eed. If<br>
the group wants me there, let me know soon and how many CD's you think<=
br>
we need and I can get some burned. I have Ubuntu and Kubuntu 8.10 and<br=
>
can download whatever else you think we should have available. If I get<=
br>
them burned before the "Showcase" we can enjoy ourselves a little=
more<br>
than the rush of last year. I don't remember how many we did last ye=
ar<br>
but I'm open to burning about 75 to 100 if you think we need that many.=
No labels though. That is to expensive.<br>
