The Linux Users of Victoria Annual Penguin Picnic will be held on
Sunday, January 28, starting at 12 noon BUT *NOT* at the Yarra Bank
Reserve, Hawthorn.
Due to the predicted extreme hot weather on Sunday, the LUV committee
has decided to change to an indoor picnic with dips, cheeses, cured
meats, fruits, cakes, icecreams and icy poles, cool drinks, etc. instead
of a BBQ. The meeting will now be held at our regular workshop venue,
Infoxchange at 33 Elizabeth St. Richmond, right by Victoria Parade and
North Richmond railway station.
Please bring salads and drinks. The Annual Penguin Picnic is a big
social occasion for members of LUV, a great opportunity to see in the
New Year and LUV's first meeting of the year. As usual, there will be no
LUV main meeting nor beginners' workshop in January. Main meetings will
resume on Tuesday 6 February and the next beginners meeting will be on
Saturday 17 February.
LUV would like to acknowledge Infoxchange for the Richmond venue.

Linux Users of Victoria report for 2017
=======================================
2017 was a very significant year for LUV, as the first and oldest Linux
user group in Australia finally disincorporated and became a
subcommittee of Linux Australia. Many thanks to the LUV members and
committees past and present and to the president, treasurer and commitee
of Linux Australia for making the transition fairly smooth!
We held twenty-one events over the course of the year and contributed to
a couple of others including Software Freedom Day in September and a
Melbourne Meetup end-of-year party in December. We had fifteen
presentations by nine different speakers at our main monthly meetings,
plus eight monthly workshops and a Debian 9 release party.
Here's looking forward to another great year for Linux in 2018!
Regards,
Andrew Pam
President, Linux Users of Victoria
