The Home Unix Machine - Brisbane User Group
-------------------------------------------
The Home Unix Machine - Brisbane User Group (HUMBUG) exists to get fellow
Unix users in contact with each other, to introduce people to Unix and
Unix-like operating systems, and to help users in operating those
systems. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Meetings tend to be informal. We socialise, discuss Unix and computing,
solve Unix problems for new and experienced users alike, and have
occassional talks.
Meeting Details
---------------
Where: Hawken (Engineering) Lecture Theatre 3, at the University of
Queensland.
Date: Saturday, 18th October, 1997.
Time: 3:00pm to 1:00am. (You don't have to stay the whole time! :-)
Cost: Membership is $15 for a full year, but no one has to join unless
they are going to use club services such as our network access
during meetings.
Food: There are a variety of takeaway places within a few minutes drive
of the meeting room, and one within 5 minutes walk.
Drinks: Tea and Coffee are available at the meetings. The cost is 10c for
a styrophoam cup if you don't bring a mug, and 40c for a cup full
of tea or coffee. A coke machine is just upstairs from the meeting
room if that is your prefered way to consume caffine.
Talks: Information on up coming talks is announed seperately.
For information on talks see the announcements by Bradley Marshall
(Talks Maintainer) on the announce mailing list
For more information on club meetings and HUMBUG itself, see our web page
at http://www.humbug.org.au or see the HUMBUG FAQ posted periodically to
uq.general, bne.general, and aus.computers.linux.
A note to german speakers
-------------------------
Thanks to all the german speakers who have told me that humbug means
nonsense in german, you can stop mailing me now :-) Actually, considering
we are a social club as well as technical support group, nonsense is
sometimes an appropriate title ;-)
How to get there
----------------
The Hawken building is building 50 on the information maps distributed
around the campus.
If you do not know where the Hawken Lecture Theatres are, meet me at
the University Information booth at the entrance to the campus along
Sir Fred Schonnel Drive (just off the round about), 15 minutes before the
scheduled start of the meeting, or email me and we can arrange to meet at
another time/place.
For further details, email me at robert@zen.humbug.org.au, or contact
one of the mailing lists.
Cheers,
-Robert
