[TriLUG] End Of 10...

[David Both via TriLUG]

I've been looking at places we can promote this.

1.  Triangle Business Journal

2.  Girl Develop IT

3.  NextDoor neighborhood web site


I can put something together and start getting it out there, but I need
to know the hours we'll be open for this. Also someone should review it
after I get it put together. Any volunteers for that?

Any other ideas for where to promote it?

It might also be good to put together a reference manual that people can
take away with them that describes their new installation of Linux Mint
and how to use the basics such as the file manager and to configure the
desktop and other aspects of the OS. We could get those printed and coil
bound and I'm willing to underwrite at least part of that cost. Anyone
want to help with putting this together and/or the cost?

Thanks!
