I helped out yesterday at the Greater London Linux Group’s meeting, held at my old alma mater, the University of Westminster in New Cavendish street. It was a blast going back after so many years, I met one of my best teachers, Sean Tohill who always had an open mind and a keen intellect. The whole event was organised by Simon Morris.
A lot more people than we had anticipated turned up for this meet! There were easily more than 100 people that showed up. Simon had installed SLED 10 on several desktops there and I got Debian running VLC on a big projector screen, playing a movie in a continuous loop.
A few people, including me, volunteered to give short presentations about certain aspects of SLED, and I was giving a short talk and demo of XGL under SLED. I demoed it to about 20 people and they were all quite impressed with it. Along they way I managed to help out several people with their linux problems.
I absolutely loved this meetup and I hope I can attend many more in the future. There are more details and pictures here.
