***Apologies for cross posting*** All There will be a meeting of the Fedora UK & Ireland User Group on Monday 13th December 2010 at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). The meeting is in the LSE Library and will start at 10:30 (Coffee from 10:00) and formally end at approximately 15:30 but with time for informal chat after that. Members of the Fedora EU group will be very welcome. 'Membership' of the groups is informal and so any users or potential users of Fedora will be welcome. Further details and an agenda will be circulated nearer the time but for now put the date in your diary! We are pleased to announce that Steve Bayliss, the release manager for Fedora 3.4, will be attending. If you are not already on one of the group mailing lists, please add yourself at www.jiscmail.ac.uk/fedora-uki <http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/fedora-uki> so that you receive further information. At OR10 in Madrid, a group discussion came up with some suggestions for the format of future User Group meetings. As a result of these, we are intending that for some of the day all delegates will be together but that for part of it we split into two groups: a technical strand (software developers) and a management strand (people who are more interested at an overview level than with code). * please bring outstanding problems and issues for discussion * please come prepared to talk formally or informally about the aims for your use of Fedora and the functionality planned or implemented; people are always keen to share this sort of information * likewise, please come prepared to talk formally or informally about interaction with your end-users that may have influenced your repository design * contributions from both new and experienced users are welcome! If you have any items for the agenda, be they short or longer items, and/or presentations that you would like to give, please let us know. Please direct any replies to the Fedora UK & Ireland list ([log in to unmask]). Chris Awre & Richard Green Co-Chairs, Fedora UK & Ireland Group
