The University of Abertay Dundee Linux Users Society

The Abertay Linux Society was started to fill the void of regular meetings of Linux users in Dundee. It's membership is split between students and non students, and everyone is welcome to join. Our ties with the Tayside LUG (Linux User Group) are very strong indeed and most of our members are members of TayLUG as well, we have in recent months shared the same meeting which has worked very well indeed. The society aims is to promote Linux and open source software to new and experienced users.

You don't have to have any Linux experience to come to a meeting and you will find lot's of people who enjoy helping people understand how Linux works. Our meetings normally consist of a informal presentation on numbers of subjects relating F.L.O.S.S (Free, Libre, Open-Source, Software) and current events happening in the software world.

We meet once a fortnight (Thursdays 7pm), 3rd Floor (Cinema), Students Association Building, Bell St,

  • Its that time of year again - Software Freedom Day 2009 - Dundee

    Hi Guys,

    Well its come to that time of year again, that we are starting plan's
    for this years Software Freedom Day. Which will be held on the 19th
    of September. I have sent you this email because you where either
    involved with last years event or you have shown some interest in
    being involved with this years event.

    We are at a very embryonic stage at the moment, and really this email
    is kind of a heads up. I'm hoping that some of you guys would be
    prepaired to do some talks, or have some ideas of things we can do
    either to promote the event, or exhibits we can showcase during the
    day.

    We had a very successful years last year, and of course we're hoping
    to match that.

    Please feel free to email me your ideas, suggestions and thoughts, and
    of course feel free to discuss this matter with the TayLug Mailing
    list. If you know someone that may be interested in getting involved
    feel free to pass this on, or send me their details and i will get in
    touch with them.

    I look forward to your response

    Arron Finnon
    President
    Abertay Linux Society
