A quick reminder that the next OxLUG meeting is scheduled for
the *Second* Sunday of September, not the first.
Topic still TBA.
Also, advance notice that we're preparing to move the mailing lists
from majordomo to mailman sometime in the next couple of weeks.
This will provide a better interface for managing the lists & filtering
out spam and also provide web-based subscription & archives etc.

August's OxLUG talk will be given by Dave Jones (SuSE) on Powertweak:
a utility which is particularly useful if you want to try to extend
your laptop battery life. Abstract at http://www.oxlug.org/
The talk will again be held in Trinity College - entrance
through the small door to the right of the large gates half-way
along Broad Street.
Given the anticipated hot weather, if anyone would support another
Picnic in the Parks beforehand, please let me know.
