Our last meeting was a great success, with a most interesting talk from Gary
Burton, to whom we are very grateful. For any of you who missed his talk,
the slides are now available on line.

There was also much Linux chat and some problems were solved and help given.
Our next meeting will be on Saturday February 20th from 13:00 to 18:00 at the
Broadoaks Sports and Social Club, Hilsea
http://www.portsmouth.lug.org.uk/venue.html
Felicity Meadows will talk on "Git: the content version
manager". More anon.
And Master Taylor Collins will give the talk and demonstration that
he had hoped to give in December. He built a robotic arm from a kit from
Maplin which he then connected to a Raspberry Pi and controlled using python
and a Nintendo Wii-mote. I believe it can be used to move marbles from one
pot to another. (Among other things, of course.) It is encouraging to note
that the next generation (next but three?) is so engaged and interested.
There will also be all the usual Linux chat, help and support.
I look forward to seeing many of you there. As always, if you have a specific
problem that you would like help with, or if you would like help installing a
specific Linux Distro, please give us advance notice so that we can try to
ensure that the relevant equipment/disks/people are available.
