Progress Update
Through SoSLUG's association within the art and media community, Derek was able to put Martin Houston in touch with a tutor (Ruth Catlow) at Writtle college. As a consequence, the college is the proposed venue for future meetings, beginning at the start of term in September onwards. Details of dates and times of meetings, will be published in due course.
Ruth is well placed to assist Martin accomplish his aim of setting up a Chelmsford based Linux User Group. She is a great advocate of Open Source software, launching her who zero dollar laptop project. As well as teaching at Writtle college, she is also director of Furtherfield in North London.
If you live in the Chelmsford, Essex area, and are interested in learning more about Linux, or just need some help getting started, then please email Martin Houston at mhouston@deluxe-tech.co.uk for more information.
SoSLUG website improvements.
Hello everyone.
We're back!.
Sadly, as a result of our forced disappearance, the site is lacking in certain aspects. For example, some links may be broken and some images may not be visible at the moment. But rest assured, we're working hard behind the scenes fixing things as we find them.
It has always been a desire of SoSLUG members to offer useful, coherent information, to anyone who comes to visit us, whether in person, (and we're always delighted to welcome visitors on a Monday evening) or via this site.

SoSLUG Banner Competition
Outline of Competition
You may have noticed, we recently upgraded the SoSLUG theme. One key feature of the new theme is the banner at the top of the page changes, depending on the page and section of the menu you are currently viewing.
