Hello. If someone would like to post the schedule in the Ubuntu Women forum, I can sticky it until the meeting is over. There is quite a bit of traffic in that area, and no doubt some forumgoers would like to attend, but perhaps haven't heard of the Fridge or won't think to check the Planet.

Does anyone know how to get on the Ubuntu Fridge calendar? other places we want to send the word out to? In the interim, please let's keep brainstorming on specific ideas. I'm loving the activity on this list and want to keep our momentum moving forward. And keep dropping into the ubuntu-women IRC channel any time and I'll try remember to keep it open as well. cheers, Belinda (in Houston) On Dec 17, 2006, at 3:16 AM, Leslie Hawthorn wrote: > > > On 12/15/06, Romana Branden <<a href="mailto:timelady@gmail.com">timelady@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > Yolynne Medina wrote: > > > > > > On 12/14/06, *Meg Kurdziolek* < <a href="mailto:meg.kurdziolek@gmail.com">meg.kurdziolek@gmail.com</a> > > <mailto:<a href="mailto:meg.kurdziolek@gmail.com">meg.kurdziolek@gmail.com</a> >> wrote: > > > > 1.)
