[olug] Infotec and Summer Installfest

[CM Miller]

Adam- 

Although I haven't been to a meeting since Jan/Feb.
due to my school schedule at Metro.  I would be more
than willing to place flyers @ Metro this summer for
the installfest.  Also, I would be willing to be like
a meet and greet person to sit at a table and help
direct people coming into the installfest, pass out
name tags if you would like.  I think it would give it
a bit more organization, since more and more people
are coming to these.  I was at the last one, and I
thought it was great and I learned alot.  Plus it is
fun to interact with Linux folks.    

I was also wondering if it would be possible to setup
zones or areas set aside for installing, another for
troubleshooting apps.  This is just a though, cause I
am going to bring in my machine again to get more help
with the kernel and other things like that.
 

thanks again and let me know what you think of my idea
