The Yarmouk University Linux, and FOSS, workshop(or conference) plan. [RESURRECTED]

[Khamis Siksek]

Help us to help you,

First of all, please arrange for us the day and the room to held the
lecture, and we can do a one whole day event, with lectures and install fest
at the end, you are our contact person there in Yarmouk, I tried couple of
times to call Dr. Qasem, but with no luck, I also sent him an email and also
with no luck so I assumed that he is not interested, so prepare things for
us, we have a day in JUST in 8th of May, if you can arrange for Yarmouk day
so we can plan for it, as you know as employees we need to ask for vacations
and it is not easy to take it.

We the Ubuntu loco team are more than willing to help, but as you see, we
are a small team (sub devision of the JoLUG) and we cannot do everything
alone without the help from enthusiasts like you :-)

Best regards,
