[Lugcomms] Meeting Notes 20080429

[Patrick Coleman]

Hi Mark,

Sorry, the message I sent was a section to be inserted into the general notes. See
attached full general notes with slightly updated PLUG.

PLUG is an acronym for the Perth Linux Users Group; I know, the jokes never stop. (Our
servers are called shameless, kettle, spark and un).

Cheers,

Patrick
