[clue-tech] Additional study groups and/or topics?

[Matt Atkins]

I would also love to attend such a meeting.  I have been a member of the 
list for quite some time but have not actually taken the plunge yet into 
Linux.  I once and for all plan on attending the InstallFest this weekend so 
I will finally have a machine to play with.  Most of the CLUE organized 
meetings are way over my head, but a more informal meeting with no outlined 
topic would be much more my style since I know nuttin about nuttin.  ;)
