<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Okay NMGLugers. How about re-phasing to allow Mark to join us more easily. In an entirely unofficial poll at last night's meeting there were no objections and 3 of 6 were in favor. We can reply to the list to see how everybody feels about this. If agreed we would have to pick a start date, but that is easy enough. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Also Art B. will be giving us more information on the typesetting program and Markdown(a markup language) at a future meeting. Otherwise we had a good discussion which was wide ranging, including some off topic. Let me here remind the Free Software Foundation and ItsFOSS as places to immerse oneself in Free Software. Though I am afraid many of us are less pure about this than we might be. I know I fail the purity test from time to time. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">I just checked out the new address at '<a href="http://nmgl.ug">nmgl.ug</a>' - not sure a Ugandan host is going to be any quicker than other hosting. This was arranged by Sam to forward to Nnmglug.org. It does work, no apparent delay.

I use TeX/LaTeX all the time, but I won't be there, although I would love to start joining again if we can shift the phase of the nmglug meetings.<br>
<br>
(I feel sheepish about that -- I had asked for this phase back when both nmglug and my workshops were at Warehouse 21, but that's not the case anymore, so now the effect is the opposite: I can never join the nmglug meetings. Anyone think we could shift the phase back to the other Thursday?)<br>
