bad digest, Vol 1 #242 - 6 msgs

[Nathan Mellin]

Anytime that BAD will be meeting in the city?
I'd like to meet some of the Debian users where I'm a
resident, I came over a year ago from a small country
with a high debian population, and miss being brought
up to date.  Fremont is a bit far, so I can't make it
from work to there however maybe next time, how often
are these meetings?  Monthly, any chance the next one
will be in the city of SF?  Thanks,

Nathan.
