2010 LITW: Linux in the Wild
Date: July 18, 2010 at
noon
Location: Strathcona Park Ottawa
Linux in the Wild is a casual event to meet and mingle with the Ottawa area Linux community.
Important note: LITW is a potluck picnic this year.
We are looking for volunteers to help. Visit the LitW wiki page for details.
Previous LITW events have been held at Vincent Massey Park but this year they can offer fewer amenities since they are under renovation. Since they've doubled their fee for this privilege, we're seeking an alternate venue.
Note: There will be no meeting at Algonquin College in July
