[Debian-au] [SLUG-ANNOUNCE] May DebSIG

[Matt Hope]

When:
	Wednesday, May 19th
	7pm - 8pm

Where:
	James Squire Brewery
	King St. Wharf

Making a Debian package for some random piece of software isn't really
that hard. Debian has a large pile of helper scripts and examples (every
source package in the distribution) to help get you going. 

This month, Matthew Palmer will be distilling the wisdom of the Debian
archive and his experiences packaging software for Debian into a talk on
Debian packages and packaging. It will cover what source and binary
packages are in Debian, how to turn one into the other, and various
accessories for the packaging process.

The target audience will be anyone who has ever wanted to make a Debian
package, whether for Debian, themselves, or their work, and maybe those
who've made a package or two and want to know other ways to do it.

Along with the usual free-form discussions / debates that will precede
and follow his talk, food, drink and internet access are available and
people generally start wandering in from 18:30 for a good 'ol chin wag.

See you all there!
