What happened

  • TonyWhitmore helped fix JohnLewis‘s gallery installation.

  • NickWhitelegg‘s Freemap talk was especially well recieved.

  • AlanPope helped upgrade NigelMiles‘s hush box to Ubuntu Hoary, and with the help of HugoMills, got xorg working with the vesa driver

  • HugoMills brought along his Sinclair Spectrum, causing everyone to go “ooh, that takes me back a bit”. Shame it didn’t work. Bad RAM is suspected.

  • HugoMills helped CaroleCosse install Ubuntu Warty, and to upgrade it to Hoary. He also introduced her to IRC (poor woman).
