[ubuntu-za] Planning the next Ubuntu Launch Party in Pretoria

[Nico Michael]

Hi There
we need to make the Date a Saturday so people can make it
Please send your comments to this list if you know when a good date will 
be to guarantee we will have the software to download

The time is always set as : morning 08:30 to 10h30/11h30 when the 
restaurant is not busy

I also need a volunteer with a power cable and a 5 or 6 way white mains 
socket strip
Daniel has volunteered to download the software , I need a backup person 
in case there were problems with the download

Please give me your comments to me and to this list , I have only got 
one reply so far I need to know how big a table to book.

Marius are you going to join us again ?

The last time we had this it was very pleasant and the food was good

Kind regards

Nico Michael
