So, um, anyone got anything for January? No-one's got in touch and I'll shortly be heading north to battle wolves as is my festive duty. Unless, of course, I'm misreading the replies we do have and the 3 of you that replied to this thread were suggesting something for Jan not Feb?<br>

Hi all,<br><br>As mentioned last night I was toying with giving people a break from the hard labour of preparing talks for the January meeting and just having a pub meet. However, I got enough offers to do a talk that I think we'll go ahead with a normal meeting. It'll be on the 12th January, so get it in your diaries. If you did grab me yesterday and offer up a talk for Jan (or didn't but have a talk you'd like to give) please reply to this message and we'll choose a couple to put on. I probably want to get this sorted in the next couple of weeks to give everyone enough notice that they're not preparing their talks at the last moment (unless that's what they choose to do).<br>
<br>Anyway, looking forward beyond January to the February meeting, I thought (after prompting from Roland) that it would be fun to do another Lightning talk evening. We did this last February (<a href="http://lrug.org/meetings/2008/01/25/february-2008-meeting/" target="_blank">http://lrug.org/meetings/2008/01/25/february-2008-meeting/</a> for details, including a link to the video) and it worked really well. So well in fact that we'll stick to the same format; 20 slides, 20 seconds each, auto transitioning to keep you to your time limit. To fill up the evening we'd need at least 6 speakers but we could accommodate about 8 or 9 without the evening feeling too full. So, get your lightning talk hats on and start volunteering yourselves.<br>
<br>Cheers,<br><br>Muz<br>
