[Charlug] Linux installfest

[Thomas Meiswinkel]

There was a UNCC LUG at one time, but have not heard anything from the
Listserv in a while.  Charlotte Area Robotics(CAR) is very active on campus
and has some projects going on.  I was thinking of having a Linux
InstallFest in a few weeks but there will be a planning meeting for CAR on
UNCC campus at Woodward Hall in the main lobby on the 2nd floor on October
30 at 3:30pm.  I am forwarding this email to Jesse Bikman who is the
president of CAR.
Thanks,
Tom
