Independence Day (fwd)

[Stefano Maffulli]

Perche' no? A me sembra una buona idea quella di istituire un Linux Install
Day anche in Italia. Il 25 aprile e' una data magari un po' delicata, ma mi
pare cmq una buona idea.

Se vogliamo iniziare da quest'anno pero' credo sia il caso di darsi una
mossa, che mancano 6 settimane soltanto e non tutti i LUG sono attrezzati
con una sede stabile (noi no, almeno -Milano-)

Altre voci? Commenti?
Saluti
