Date: Thursday, July 10, 2008 9:49:47 AM Who : Mark Boyajian, IT Consultant, Simple Solutions What : Open Source Advocacy - Want to Help? Where: Martha's Exchange Day : Thur 17 Jul **Next Week** Time : 6:00 PM for grub, 7:30 PM for discussion (usually upstairs) :: Overview Open Source software can be an easy path to Linux. If the Windows user is leary about changing operating systems and software at the same time, high quality Open Source software can make it a much less daunting two step process. Mark Boyajian has a campaign to publicize the Open Source option and inform people about the many fine programs available. His approach is particularly innovative: use the local public library as a base. Mark will explain the very successful Tech Talk series he pioneered at the Lawrence Library in Pepperell along with other strategies. Want to ease your neighbor, cousin, or boss into Linux? Use the two step Open Source route. Take them to Perrerell or, better yet, get your local public library involved! Mark will get you started. >>> RSVP to Jim Kuzdrall for dinner to assure adequate seating. <<< !!! If you are not a "Regular Attendee" (50%), please let me know. !!!
