The next General Meeting of the National Capital Freenet (NCF) will
take place Tuesday January 5, 1993.  Here are the details:

Date:  Tuesday January 5 1993 
Time:  7:00pm. 
Place: Auditorium
       Ottawa Public Library Main Branch
       120 Metcalfe St.
       Ottawa.  

Newcomers are welcome to attend and the meeting will begin with an
introduction to the Freenet concept, and a description of the current
status of the NCF.  We will provide a live demonstration of the pilot
system that now exists.  People who have heard the introduction and
seen "The Video" may wish to come at 7:30.

The major item of business will be planning for the Official Public
Opening, which is scheduled for February 1 at the Regional Headquarters
on Lisgar St.

We may also break-up into smaller discussion groups to talk about the
activities of various committees.  Currently, there are committees set
up for:

  Community Relations
  Ways and Means
  System Design and Research
  Hardware and Software

The FreeNet now has it's own phone lines.  Set your terminal parameters
to 7 bits, even parity and dial 780-FREE (780-3733).  If you do not
have an account, login as "guest".

The National Capital FreeNet is now registering "pilot" users.  Some
things still need to be fixed, and more information needs to be
installed before the formal opening in February 1993, but we are ready
to have more people test the system.  See the Administration Section on
the FreeNet for registration instructions.
